Hey you guys, thanks for all your coments on this, I'm not really worried anymore since I'll still be playing trumpet in one band, one orchrestra, and marching band, and horn in just one band and one orchrestra I think it should be ok.

And to reply to Tootsall:

I've been playing my trumpet for 8 years now, and when I first started no one really taught me the right way to set my embouchure so I did it the most comfortable way, and that was with 2/3 top, 1/3 bottem lip, so maybe doing it wrong this whole time will actualy come back and help me out.

Thanks!
