Not yet. The parts are on order though. I need to think about exactly how to construct them. I’m tempted to etch a PCB, which will be the neatest solution, but also might be over kill!

I remember in a school band pursuading the whole bass section to play certain sections of music a semitone high and then to complain about how flat everyone else was – surprisingly it turns out if you are confident in your accusations you can often get away with it – even when it’s your word against the oboes.
I didn’t see a fine for this on the list although I like to assume in a more ‘professional’ environment it would be harder to pull off?
I remember a great passtime back then was sabotaging other people’s instuments – slipping a small piece of paper between keys or sections of an instrument can cause such intersting results and can often take some time to detect and remedy
I also feel that my friend Robin’s suggestion of having a quick Guiness during the interval at a big concert where I was playing bass clarinet was worthy of a fine – sufice to say that large single reeds do not benefit from being coated in stout.
