Re: Negative effects of saxophone?

As an amateur, I started doubling on sax in the late 1990s and think that the extra attention to how the instruments work has, if anything, improved my clarinet playing. (There's still plenty of room for more improvement....) The one thing I do have to watch out for is loss of lip if I don't play soprano clarinet for several days at a time. The embouchure for clarinet is tighter, as others here have mentioned. I get a lazy lip in a hurry if I don't practice clarinet. But the instruments feel and sound so different from each other that I've never had a problem with mixing them up and absent-mindedly using the wrong fingerings, for instance.
