I've always used the same mpc on my Bb and A (Yamaha 72's now, but also
on my Buffets). My C clarinet is a Buffet, and I use the same mpc on it,
but I've wondered if the sound character would change if I had a real C
clarinet mpc - smaller bore (?). I understand that Ralph Morgan makes
one, and sooner or later I'll probably try one.
I've never known anyone who used a different mpc on Bb and A, except
maybe for that M=FChlfeld feller, and he played with vibrato and learned on=
the violin - what would *he* know!! (this is a joke, for the humor
impaired!)
