Do you know why when I play from low a to e it will play the note that plays when you press the octave key but slightly in the background? I also have trouble starting a note because it will squeak but I just switched from regular clarinet
For your first question, you are getting the overtone coming through on those low notes, this is a common issue I see with a lot of people when starting on bass clarinet/clarinet and trying to play low. This may seem odd, but try to lower the back of your throat when you are down lower along with loosening your embouchure. As for the starting notes squeaking, that is all in your embouchure. Usually that one is caused by either blowing too much, being too far on the mouthpiece, or being to tense or tight. Hope this helps but if you have any more questions let me know. :))

Contra is one of my favorite clarinets! sounds so nice
