Hi,
I'm a bit in trouble with my Link 9. ITs an older STM with less baffle than the models that are currently in production.
I'm playing this piece since a few moths and havin trouble with squiks in the high register, from about A-C.
It just happens when I attack the notes heavily and only with certain rather soft reeds.
I first thought, this is because I've choosen a too big tip (I'm about 6 years on sax, 3 on Bari, practicing about 2h a day and bari is my main horn) but everything works fine on the 8* and has been for over 2 years.
Facing on the STM 9 looks fine, but I'm not a mouthpiece guru
any hints?
Chris
