[Trombone-l] Double Buzz remedies?

It's caused by two points of contact, or two apertures. Perhaps your point of contact for the buzz has gotten off center, but then the buzz starts again in the center. Or, maybe fatigue has caused you to lose your seal in the outer edges of your embouchure. 

I usually experiment with transfering pressure from left to right in an attempt to mute the unwanted buzzing and recenter my aperture.

When it happens to me (which isn't often), it is when I am very tired.  If I
pull the horn off my face for a second, it usually goes away.
