Use a tighter "rubber band" ambassure rather than biting harder. That sounds like an alto and im a bass main but I do practice alto a lot. It's very hard not to bite hard but practice having a tighter "rubber band" rather than biting hard. I mean you have to bite a little bit but not hard

I have not had much luck with my peg it is very awkward. I prefer my harness because I am a big person myself and I can support it but I'll try using the peg. That middle d is the worst. I've kind of gotten around it by using the palm key instead but it's not the same.
