Why some holes in Diatonic trees are difficult to blow and how to overcome?

You are wondering why Diatonic trumpet sucks in the second hole is difficult, why blew the high notes heavy ...?

The following article will address these issues, this is the article I translated back from the support of Lee Oskar trumpet, of course during the translation has removed some of the "happy" about the quality of the trumpet of the company. .

There are some common difficulties that you may have experienced while playing the harmonica. For example. Suction at the 1, 2 or 3 holes can create a feeling of no speech, distraction, distortion, or deafness. Some other nodules may be dizzy, unclear, or not at all clear. Many players blame harmonica plants have problems. However, this is usually due to improper use of techniques. You can completely solve these problems by practicing and learning how to play the right technique, by placing your tongue, chin ... in the right place, controlling the flow of the breath appropriately when playing the trumpet.

Difficulty to suck on holes 2 and 3 is the most common. New players and even some experienced players can all have problems at holes 2 and 3. This is because reed (sucker) at hole 2 and 3 can bend more than the other reed suckers. . Bend is a technique that changes the healing of the breath, leading to high pitch variations and more visual expression.

However, when an inexperienced player bends the air out due to improper technique, the note feels unpronounceable, distracted, distorted or the sound is degraded. Some harmonica samples have poorly machined quality, low cost and unsatisfactory material resulting in high air blowing noise, poor reed response. However, when you have a good trumpet, the reed is often sensitive, if you are used to playing the trumpet slightly may also cause the phenomenon of the above mentioned.

Please refer to the table below if you have problems. Remember, take the time to practice the technique step by step. The embouchure is the way you place the lip, tongue and other parts of your mouth on the trumpet. Many problems can be solved with the right way.

	Problems	Reasons	Solutions
	Difficult to blow, suction some holes	The trumpet is not right	True trumpet
Suffix: 1, 2, 3	Sounding: Weak ,Too deep , Distortion Expensive, airy feeling	You are unintentionally bent on tightening your breath. To say "i", length out: "iiiiii". Note your tongue position and volume of your oral cavity. Your mouth when in this position will force the air intake on the horn is very strong and narrow stream.	Learn to blow gently and comfortably. Tip: Say "Aaaaaaa" or "Ooooo" and notice the position of your tongue and mouth. You need to put the trumpet in such a position. You should lower your lower jaw and place your tongue under your mouth, between your lower teeth. Imagine yawning. In this way, you increase the volume of the oral cavity. To avoid getting too strong through the mouth, it is possible to remove some of the air through the nose. The lips are so narrow, your lips will be more hollow. Can try sloping behind the trumpet a bit
Blows: 8, 9, 10	Sounding: Unclear ,Not in, Jarring	You are blowing too hard, your breath and mouth are not correct.	To say "i", length out: "iiiiii". Note your tongue position and volume of your oral cavity. You should use the same mouth position when blowing from 8 to 10 holes. The lips are so narrow, your lips will be more hollow. Blow gently, slightly long and steady.
Suffix: 7, 8, 9, 10	Sounding: Shudder Soundless	You are squeezing the air. Comment: The hole at the hole 7 to 10 is not bend. So do not narrow the flow of steam	Resolve like sucking into holes 1 through 3

Note: Another cause for a reed that is hard to blow may be due to reed that does not have enough gap (gap) compared to its hole on the plate reed plate.
