>> By a triple register mechanism, I mean the standard setup with three vents controlled by the register key: throat Bb, clarion B up to Eb, and E and above. On my 1967 Buffet, it's a nightmare to adjust. <<

This is not the standard setup. With the exception of models with two seperate register key levers, the standard on all current French pro models is, as Chris says, a double register key where the lower/body one acts as both the throat Bb tone hole and the register key from B to D#. If your 1967 Buffet is not like this, and has an additional seperate tone hole for throat Bb, it is not standard at all. Buffets from 60s I've seen had the standard setup of two vents.
