 Video example of reed change
Author: fskelley

I took some video today to show what's happening to me- how I can take a reed that's refusing to play my top notes, adjust it so it will play them, and then within a few minutes I'm back where I started. I can fix it again, but I need out of this cycle, or at least some way to extend how long I can play without needing a refix.

Please see
http://www.FLmemories.com/C/Clarinet140211b.wmv.
The whole thing is under 3 minutes, and the important points are at about :35 where I've fixed the high notes, and then at the end where they've stopped working again.

This is a long thread (thanks for all the responses!), and suggestions still on the table are 1) try Legere again, 2) try Gonzalez GD, 3) try harder reeds in general, and I guess 4) study the books etc on high ranges.

I've asked Mr. Ridenour for his input on how to fix my reeds more "permanently", and perhaps I will hear something from him. For now I'm just glad I have his ATG system available to do even a temporary fix. Before ATG it was really hit and miss (sanding and grinding without good direction).
