What is the total number of different notes it can produce?--Sonjaaa 14:50, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I play the xun and have difficulty getting more than 1 octave; the high notes are hard to play. (Although xun come in different sizes). It was probably originally played pentatonically but it's easy to get the tones in between as well, so it can probably produce at least 8 diatonic pitches. Half steps are hard but are probably possible too. Badagnani 18:53, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
