"all of a sudden it went dead"

Right, you might think that the reed was being over
soaked, that's what I thought. So I went up to a 4
Grand Concert and tried the Zonda out as well. Maybe
these brands aren't good? No matter which size reed I
try. Ie: Grand Concert 3, 3.5 or Zondas, it still
happens. About ten minutes of playing and the clarinet
dies. I'm not even sure the reed vibrates at all. Now,
I guess the question is, could the reed be too soft
and soaked? If Yes, then why is it still happening
when I have tried harder reeds?

It doesn't happen with certain notes, it's the entire
clarinet.
