If you remove a lot of cane from just behind the heart, make sure not to scrape the spine thin where it meets the heart. That works well for loosening up the response, but it will drop the pitch significantly. Also, if you are using a long scrape, the heart should be no longer than 5mm. To reduce the blowing resistance, make the heart shorter on the lower side, staying away from the spine.
