However, once I hit D and all notes above, the instrument sounds EXTREMELY “airy.” So airy that it’s very distracting and makes the sound very unpleasant. I have a Yamaha alto, an Aulos soprano, and a Woodnote sopranino and none of them have this issue. Author Posts Viewing 1 post (of 1 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
