Uggg. I can almost play my C scale/Eb Concert scale three octaves but that C is of the dehvil!!!! I can work up to it but when we play our scales in thirds/fourths/fifths I can't get it! It drives me crazy. Anyone else have dis problem?

I used to on my bass clarinet, hitting the double-octave notes suck, just keep at it and try some breathing exercises, it takes a ton of air.

Do you mean just the middle finger with the octave key, or like, above the palm keys wise? Because I can play up to the high F on altissimo range, on a good day. Other times it's only E or D.
