Joseph,
Call me a hard-liner if you wish, but if a composer doesn`t know what a
clarinet sounds like, then he should confine his profession to exclusively
digging holes in the highway.
And if he wants a sampled clarinet sound, then where better to get one from
than the local computer techno store. I`m mearly pointing him/her in the
BEST direction where to obtain one from, and yes, <insisting> upon a respect
for our profession into the bargain.
Best,
T.W.
