The above appears in the following sentence within a text about the Spanish musical instrument, the dulzaina.
Basically I need help with all of the sentence below as it doesn't make much sense to me as a whole. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.
La extensión en sonido real es de LA 4 hasta el MI 6. En contadas ocasiones se utiliza el FA # 5, y siempre está bien preparado, ligado i en progresión de grados conjuntos.
So far I have come up with:
Its actual sound range extends from A 4 to E 6.
On rare occasions it uses F# 5 (and I'm a bit baffled by the rest!)

Aceavila noni is right; they don't mean F#5, but rather the F# above the highest possible E. It would go something like this...
F (above E 6), and is always well prepared and played in a legato manner in progressions of neighboring tones
In U.S. English, at least

And as Aceavila noni notes, it's probably an F with a #5, rather than an F sharp (I screwed up in the first sentence of my explanation, sorry!)

: I think it has to be an F#, not an F with #5 ... this is a single note instrument. I think your first sentence makes sense.

Hi Joseph. You might be right, and that was my first idea (I've been conditioned to immediately see # as sharp). However, F is the adjacent neighboring tone to E, and they can't talk about "F# 5" because that's in the middle of the range instead.

I see this as the real actual sound always being well placed (ie you hit the right note from the beginning not whooshing up or down to it)...
