Scraping, unslipping slipped blades, lowers the pitch.
Clipping, slipping the blades, raises the pitch.
From someone else who struggles. I got that far with concepts.

I don't know what a chirp is! I know what a squawk is ... and to me a good reed crows the first C farily easily and then the C an octave down when more air is put though it, air that I would use to actually play. One with pitch that wanders all over the place goes in the trash, for me, because I don't know how to fix that or if it is fixable. I go nuts watching videos on youtube where they just scrape away for a few minutes and bingo have those two Cs. I can't see what they are doing that brings that result.
