+Michael Pereira Problem with the the "puffing the cheeks" argument is that the low range always makes you puff your cheeks. Even Gene Porkony does it when he goes for that low F. If you're playing a 5/4 or 6/4 CC or BBb, you will puff your cheeks, it's just that simple.
how do you get that pro sound? i have a great sound but I want that pro sound alot of older tuba players have
I wouldn't say puffing cheeks is a good thing. Have you tried not puffing your cheeks? That might help you with a better sound
