Hi folks.

I have a question about tuning. I am playing a David Daye chanter. I sat down with a tuner his afternoon and noticed that
May of the notes I am playing are all over the place tuning wise, but mostly one bar above or below in some cases of being dead on with the tuner (my iphone Power Tuner). But the E note (both octaves) seems to be way sharp. I am sure most of that is me, but this note was off much more than other notes. Is that the reed, or am I just really over blowing it?
