Saxophone Mechanics: Prestini Straight Soprano Saxophone with vented cup

This video demonstrates a vented cup on a straight soprano saxophone.
It's a pad cup that has a small hole drilled in its centre. It allows the key to be vented when playing in the upper register (with octave key) which helps to stabilize the tone.

Dieses Video zeigt einen Klappendeckel mit kleiner Lüftungsöffnung an einem geraden Sopransaxophon. In dem Klappendeckel ist noch eine kleine Öffnung, die bei Drücken der Oktavklappe das Tonloch verjüngt. Es erlaubt das Ausströmen einer kleineren Menge Luft im höheren Register und hilft dabei, den Ton zu stabilisieren.
