a question about "Cut of the note B"

[cai-shao-yang]

when i practice a tune,with some cuts and strikes.There is a place to let me quite confused.

the question is "how play the note 'D' to'B',then（at the same time） cut 'B'"? notice — the D in the second octave，and the “B” in first octave。

[Mr.Gumby]

It seems so straightforward it may turn out hard to explain, or not.

Anyhow, you play d' (vent top hole), go to B, cut B.

What probably gets you confused is the fact you do need to land on B very briefly before you can cut it properly but there you have it, that's all there is to it : d {Bc}B

when i in short time briefly，i land on B，at that time，whether I play the sound ‘B’，before i cut ‘B’？？

[Mr.Gumby]

Not really, in most cases anyway.

There can be instances however, depending on the tune and what you want to achieve, where you can place the cut a bit later. Don't worry about that for now though, it will only cloud the issue.

thanks，Mr.gumby！

I call that a "flip" instead of a cut. But I'm not sure that anyone else calls it that.

Another possibility is to simply tongue the cut. That is: d {c}B and tongue the c (well, c# really).

[Mr.Gumby]

The notation is for convenience, as I indicated the timing is flexible and can vary according to what you are trying to achieve. What the notation indicates is that (as far as I can see) you need to physically have the B finger down before you can actually cut the note. I if you haven't, you're merely landing on B coming from the open hole of the C#.

I do also thing you will actually sound a minute little slice (and as I said, you can vary the placement of the cut but lets assume for the sake this example you want the cut at the first possible opportunity) of the B before the actual cut takes place.

d {c}B

I understand into

1、play D'
2、A brief silence,and land on B,but not blew
3、cut B,at the same time tonguing.

am i right? it seems simply!

[Blaydo]

Would be a lot easier if you don't vent the top hole for D then just cut the B as normal.

[cai-shao-yang]

and i found another method like this：
1、play D
2、Lift all fingers，and a slience briefly
3、press down “B”（T1 finger） and tonguing the same time。

I tried this, the effect Very similar, i don't know whether this standard is feasible？

Yes, that is what I meant.

hi, could you please post an image of the notation if possible it would eliminate unnecessary speculation as to the how it could be played.

[cai-shao-yang]

but no notation，just ： D ， cut（B）…… like this

well，you mean is cut the note “B” with“C-sharp”！！！！ a wonderful skill！ so simply！


thanks！！ thank all！ I'm going to choose this technology！
