Accidently sent with wrong title.

OK. I want the pickup to amplify my clarinet and bass clarinet in some spec=
ific =

situations. For example a loud stage playing with electric guitar, bass,=A0=
etc. =

using effect pedals so everything I play is captured=A0without problems of =
other =

loud instruments getting into the mic or some notes not captured as good. I=
n =

addition be able to switch relatively comfortably between soprano and bass =

clarinets. =

None of the mics I mentioned I have or have tried work well enough =

for all situations (these include various stand-mounted dynamic and condens=
er =

mics, clip on mics by AMT,=A0AKG and Shure). The problems are notes are not =

captured evenly enough and/or impossible to make it loud enough without
feedback or other sounds getting in too.

Here is an example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Dx2Jm9JwHSNI=A0it could =

I heard some pickups sound completely not like a clarinet at all and almost =

exactly like a synth. I don't expect it to sound exactly like my natural to=

but the pickup I linked all sound at least ok in some samples I heard. But =
