I like to use an Vandoren M30D mouthpiece for my Bb. It keeps those one (left) handed notes with the octave key very smooth sounding.
Alternatively, I like the more brilliant (but by no means shrill) Rico Reserve
MCR-X10 mouthpiece on my A clarinet.
They feel very similar to me (their tip openings are comparable) under play, they just sound slightly different, and appear more optimal for me on specific clarinets.
Can anyone come up with a decent reason doing this is bad (or good: aside from ability to swich instruments quickly)? Does anyone here play different mouthpieces on each clarinet in their set?
