Thanks for the kind words, DJazz!
I can see one remark that might bring me a little heat, so let me address this if you would.
Yes, I do have two different embouchures (see Hi gear Lo gear), but they are SUBTLY different, so it is reasonably easy to switch between the two.
Also, with my Lo gear set, I'm good to a solid high G and even a double C, but it is a bit more work than it needs to be. So, right now, I use the Hi gear thing for places where I need to just SCREAM.
I am in the process of developing an apporach to the Hi gear thing that will work down low, too. In fact, I can use it reasonalby low all the way down to low G, but I have to adjust my T-tongue when I do so, particulalry when it comes to double tonguing. There will be a new video clip addressing this in a week or so.
Thanks again for the kind words! Keep up the good work and NEVER stop the music!
Peace, man!
