I've recently been experiencing difficulty with intonation in the low register. It seems everything below A natural is just very flat. Throughout the middle and high registers the horn locks into just about everything but anything in the low register is flat. I have recently gone back to a Conn Helleberg from a Laskey 30H because I like the Conn's rim. I'm not sure how to remedy this? Any suggestions? Maybe there is a mouthpiece with a better cup than the Conn but a similar rim? I'm just very frustrated right now. All suggestions welcome.

Best,
J
