Indeed; i gather the reference nordland. Just not sure whether a close progression of conical pipe section'll respond similarly? If not, then an augmented 'fast air' depiction's up for debate? All be it another bread basket of "fast air", and unrelated to Robin's meaning. :)

The mouthpiece trick has nothing to do with the playing experience unless we buzz into both sides.................... It is the wrong visualization.
We need to get the "DC" (direct current) component (simply blowing air) back to its minimal role. The buzzed (AC or alternating current) component is what counts when we are making music. Like I said, the "airflow" part is only tuned to let us breathe at regular intervals. A super efficient mpc/horn COULD use so little air, that we essentially suffocate! An inefficient "free blowing" horn/mpc could pass air so quickly that we can't phrase more than a couple bars. Good designers come up with a functional comprimise.
