Intonation

Hey there,

Ever since I'm playing trumpet (for about 1 year now) i'm aware of my hearing problems. It seems that my hearing is playing tricks with me. Playing a great third (I hope I get the terms right in english) always ending up to low (towards the minor third) and my octaves are to high. I need an outher reference and a little time to hear the bad intonation. I'm working on it by playing slow intervals and checking them by keyboard or tuning device.
So far it doesn't seem to help me much. Can anyone give me some advise?

Greeting from Holland,

Olaf Vermeersch
