yeh, it's me again
Following you guys' advice, I've got what I'm pretty sure is an overblow on holes 4, 5, and 6. Only problem is, I can't get the normal blow note to go away - it and the overblow sound together. So, first off, any advice on getting _just_ the OB, without the regular blow note? And second, since I do kind of like the sound of both together, is there anything wrong with playing that way? - it sounds kind of gritty, and I'm wondering if it's good for the reeds or what.
On an irrelevant note - when I blow really, really hard on a high hole, one or two of the lowest reeds sound too. Is there anything I can do to stop this, or should I just not blow so damn hard?
