Hey everyone,

I`ve been playing for close to 10 years now but have only recently taken a more serious interest. I upgraded from a Yamaha student model horn to a used King Silver Flair and started taking private instruction. However, and here is where my problem is, I`ve noticed I now have an airy sound rather than a clear sound that I would like. My private instructor says it might have to do with playing with my chops dry, as opposed to wet and I`ve been working on playing the latter but still notice the airy sound quality. He also mentioned that it might be some material built up in the horn, but I`m not so sure. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
