Lighter Articulation?

I have been doing a ton of recording of myself for personal gain and have notice my otnguing is very heavy even though I am trying to keep it light. I have a complete aural concept of how I would like it to sound but I'm having trouble obtaining it. It is just very heavy and thumpy, if that's even a word..lol. I'm doing the Haydn this fall with an orchestra and I want the articulations real light with a nice ping ont he front of each note, that needs it. I'm just wondering what are osme things I can do to achieve this. It occurs on all of my tonguing, single, double, triple so I know the root of my problem is the single tonguing. I'm sure once I can fix that the other tonguings will begin to clean up also. I've also been playing a lot of cornet solos and just on everyhting it is so heavy. Thanks for any advice!!
