I have read that the bore is the main thing that makes the sound of oboe. But i have read from many sights that the bell plays a big part in how the oboe sounds. example. On the convey website the promise that there bells will make you oboe speak better and have a better tone. I am quite sure that it would give the instrument more unique sound. Sence now days most of the oboist have the same sound.
So do bells really change the sound? can convey Or loree bells really make your oboe sound better? can they really make the scale or smooth and give you a sweeter tone without getting rid of the responsiveness? Can the bell make that much of a difference????
