 Feeling Like A Proud Father (Auto Octaves) ...

I've just finished an oboe fitted with the fully automatic octave mechanism I designed which is much simpler to adjust than the others on the market as it only has the one adjusting screw as opposed to the usual 5 or 6 that some have, and it's all working incredibly well.

So yeah, my 'first born' has made it's way into the world all fit and healthy, and I'm feeling very proud of myself - though I won't be lighting up any cigars as I don't smoke.

It will be exhibited in Frankfurt very soon, and I'd like ANY German (or other automatic) players on here to let me know what you think of this mechanism in due course.

1998 - 2010

The opinions I express are my own.
