Just completed my first half-valve diatonic. Like it a lot. There are some variations in the bend response.

Is it my valving skill, or are there some known behaviors for these (new) valved bends?

D LO harp:

Blow 1,2 bend only slightly with great effort and control
Blow 3,4,5 bend easily to whole step
Draw 7,8 good
Draw 9,10 not at all

Stay Well
