Am I missing something here. My assumption is that the purpose of the test
is to measure the effect of materials on the tone of the harmonica and not on
how the player feels. You have given the precise reason for a mechanical air
supply. We don't want how the player feels to be a "big factor" or even a
small one....do we?
