Re: M30 mouthpiece?

My stacatto with the M30 is no different than it is with my other mouthpieces.

I'll stand by my experience with the M30 REQUIRING a bigger bite than my other mouthpieces --compared, for example, to a Mitchell Lurie M3. If I let the 'piece slip out of my mouth, the high altissimo goes away.

Over the rest of the clarinet's range, it matters not.

The extra mouthpiece insertion amounts to maybe 4-mm, but makes a live-or-die difference.
