Classic groove - high notes break up a little - oh well.

  • So, if a flute is "sharp", how do you get it back to normal? I mean, does it depend on how you play or do you have to go get it tuned like a violin?

  • @cookiesonsteve Sadly I'm VERY SHARP on this vid. Pulling out will lengthen the flute and flatten it some. Too much will ruin the ratio between the keys. Blowing harder definitely will cause the pitch to go sharp. I blow pretty hard & LOUD :) So, I have to pull out quite a bit. Check online for an - audio tuner particularly one that will play the note so you can hear it. Practice one note at a time and try to match the pitch. Have fun

  • I love it, bravo

  • @truckertwotimes Thx, man. Keep blowin'!

  • Thx Dr. Make sure you take extra care at your final to make sure you're in tune. Something I wished I done for this clip. When the flute's in tune, it's deinitely easier to skittle around on. Good luck!

  • Good but your flute sounds a bit sharp. Why the plugs?

  • @ttay1122 Yeah very sharp. I've considered taking it down a few times, but it's not like the rest of the vids aren't each flawed in their own way. So, I just have to cringe when I look back. Plugs are because my fingers don't sit well on the Flute. Too tight. 30 Yrs of sax has my fingers spread way off center. Maybe some day once I've learned how to play in tune & have mastered all the methods of articulation, I'll pop out one plug at a time.
