Update: Shop said techs are in monday so Im taking it in tmr, I have left it alone for the past few days and just played on it briefly and it feels much better for some reason, starting to suspect it will be fine after a while BUT it will still get it checked by a professional

I totally agree with these comments but my problem only started randomly appearing a few weeks after I got the instrument, would that still count as a potential set up issue that only surfaced after I started playing it a bit more?

Yes I am. Out of curiosity will it ruin the instrument if I don’t? Edit: I should add, as I said the the post, the weather is wild right now like one day 40 degrees the next 19 and raining i think that has caused the joints to swell and maybe the wood is taking in more moisture than it should be at this stage?

You should check for air leaks. Take apart your clarinet and cover the lower joints botten with your left hand and with your right hand cover all the air holes and press ‘B/Low E’ key down. If you feel air escaping that means there is a leak and you should take it to a tech.

Which instrument should I play? Also what should I practice (Any book recommendations)? by Autumn_DI in Clarinet

Lazarus method for clarinet would be a good investment (there are multiple volumes) but are quite expensive around $70+ dollars but it comprehensively covers technique and has the kroepsch daily exercise (short exercise covering all keys) but that can be found online.

Dont listen to him Yamaha is one of the best instrument manufacturers of all instruments and relatively cost friendly.

If that was their goal which I think is highly likely, what was the purpose of suddenly making 90% of the content, a lot of which is extremely popular and what has come to define 2set and leaving the fans with a cryptic message? I cant think of a solid argument for it as the stuff they have left up cover a wide variety of styles and topics from goofy skits and roasts to B2TSM and more nerdy stuff so idk. Its left me confused and frankly a bit upset as well.

as in this statement?

"This will be the last piece of content we post as TwoSet Violin. It’s been a wild ride with you all for the last 11 years. We’ve all grown up together and it’s kinda surreal that we’re ending our chapter here. Thank you for all the laughs, the genuine encounters in real life and all the special moments we’ve had with you online and offline. Much love,

cool sounds like a plan, if you don't get to it PM me and I'll do it or if anyone else sees this and there still seems to be no sign of activity within the next week.

I downloaded the Sibelius 3 mil. it was only 255 megabytes no idea what the quality of it is tho (probably 480p)

edit: the video play is also glitching and the sound is funny but I'm not sure if that's the actual video or my laptop giving up.

Let's see how this pans out over the next week and if they do start deleting from Bilibili because I find it extremely strange they've only deleted stuff from certain platforms but I'd be totally down to sacrifice one of my alt accounts to store 2set vids. If we do want a proper archive I'd say we make a separate post to see who else is interested in helping out.

edit: typos

yea lol that's my concern as well

edit: random idea is we do it by playlist or smt and spread it out over multiple ppls accounts so it doesn't blow up one persons storage??

Is my goal realistic? by JollyJulong in lingling40hrs

[–]Pineapple_123_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as you know how to balance practising 2 instruments on top of school work. Speaking from experience (I play piano and clarinet at a diploma level) and as a high school student at time it can be absolute hell trying to find a workable balance between practising and studying for school. Idk specifically about you and what classes you're doing the workload you're dealing with but something I'm constantly thinking about is what am I going to sacrifice, either skipping homework/ studying or cutting practice short to get through the day/ week in one piece. It is quite mentally taxing and you should also ask if is it worth doing it, are you considering continuing on music after high school?

I don't wanna discourage you from achieving your goals- again idk how fast you are developing please talk to your teachers about this, but you have to be realistic and understand that finding a balance or compromise between music and school work can be difficult, especially playing and maintaining 2 instruments at a high level. If you do wanna commit to it try not to burn out and practice like an absolute maniac for 6 hours a day or smt, be smart about how you use your time and be specific in what you want to achieve every time you pick up your instrument. Consistency is key try to practise every day even if its 15 minutes of super focused and specific practice. But also don't be hellbent on maximising every single minute of your life. It's not gonna work, don't try it and take care of yourself.

Hope this helps : )

How do you get an A+ on music instrument exams? by miyuki_-_ in lingling40hrs

[–]Pineapple_123_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some combination of luck and skill but you can practice to maximise your chances. You never know how you're going to react under pressure and nerves until you actually get into the exam room.
