TUNING THE VENTED YARD
Be sure to set your tuner to the correct key and calibration before you
start. After checking pitch tendencies with the non-vented yard, insert the
vented yard, 4th vent towards the front crook, and try the follwing:
1.
First set the position of the main tuning slide: check to see that C below
the staff, as well as G & C in the staff, are within 10 cents of accuracy.
2.
Play C, E, or G at top of staff, comparing pitch with 4th vent closed and
open. If pitch is lower when vented, shift the yard towards the front crook.
3.
Play a C scale at top of staff using 1st vent for D and F natural. Shift
the yard so that F doesn’t sound too high and D doesn’t sound too low.
