I can single tongue sixteenths at around 150 for the quarter note. I used to think like theclarinetist until I joined a professional orchestra. Some conductors want to play the last movement of Beethoven's 4th symphony at the metronome that Beethoven wrote (half note= 160), and I've played the Bartered Bride Overture at quarter=168 and faster. You either have to learn to double tongue, or fake it!
