the thing just screeches uncontrolably. It often makes a
rapid skipping sound when the tangents of the higher notes are engaged.
Hi Ian,
As someone who has this very day for the first time managed to produce
real H-G type noises from his machine, I feel I am eminantly suited to
answer your
question!
I had what sounds like exactly the same problem, caused I believe by a
combination of too much rosin, (I used cello rosin which is softer than
violin)
and more importantly too much cotton. When I got to the stage where I could
just see
the string through the cotton binding I suddenly got a pure note all the
way up
the box.
Regards, Tony
