Re: [earlyflute] Position of the cork in Hotteterre traverso

Yes! That is a good short answer, but remember the middle d to low D is almost always a wide octave and so low D is flat and needs to be blown up a bit. I would simple say use the middle d to high d as the first cork placing test.

I never care about those marks. I try to have the octaves (firstable the ds) in tune and that's my correct cork's position on that flute.

The mark on the stick which Alain Weemaels supplies with his Graz 392 Hotteterre is about 19.5 mm from the end.  I am also curious about how much others who play this instrument fiddle with cork position.

¿Could anybody tell me which is the aproximately position of the cork (the distance between the cork and the center of the embouchure hole) in a Hotteterre (Graz, pitch 392)?
 This will help me a lot. I´ve been trying for months and It´s still uncertain to me.
 Thanks in advance,
