I am a player who some would say plays in the red, but where is that line drawn? My top lip rolls out a little when I play so I end up playing a little on the inside of my upper lip. I have a permanent ring from where the mouthpiece rests and it is all inside the red (as far as the upper lip goes..the lower lip is below the red). However I don't feel like I have caused any problems or will have any problems with my lip in the future. It doesn't feel like a pinch. I have always been of the mindset that there are certain ways to play which are most definately wrong, but it is more of a comfort thing with mouthpiece placement, and if you can learn to play comfortably and beautifully with whatever embouchure setting you use, then it is a success.
