 Re: Bass clarinet - usefull conclusion

On all my bass clarinets, I radius (flare) the inner rim of the lower (larger) register vent at both the interior and exterior ends of the tube (think of it as pseudo-undercutting) and, perhaps as a consequence of this modification or perhaps from dumb luck, I haven't experienced the phenomena described in the above posts. No hissing, no "pffftt", no appreciable delay in switching registers.

As an old friend used to say, "I'd rather be lucky than good".
