Hello!! This is a great learning tool. Thank you for putting this out there. Not sure how to slow down the video. Can you explain how to?

[@MasteringWoodwinds]

Sure thing, Carlos! I'm glad you're enjoying the video. If you're on a desktop or laptop browser, you can slow down any KZbin video by using the video settings. Hover your mouse over the video and look for a gear wheel icon near the bottom right corner. In that menu, there is an option for "Playback Speed," which you can use to slow down or speed up the video. You can also change by increments of 0.05 instead of 0.25 if you look for the "Custom" button at the top right of the Playback Speed menu. If you're on other devices, it should still be possible to change the speed using similar methods, but I'm not 100% sure that all versions of the app have this feature yet. I hope this helps! Let me know if you need anything else.

One suggestion, would it be possible going forward to add a click countdown at the beginning in order to start playing on the first note? Thanks!

[@MasteringWoodwinds]

There actually is a metronome clicking throughout the exercises, including the visual count-in. It is admittedly a bit quiet, and I'll do my best to make it more audible in future videos. In the meantime, I invite you to try playing along using headphones so that the click doesn't get drowned out by your own playing. Thanks so much for the suggestion, Carlos!
