Re: Measuring Clarinet lengths to establish the key of the instrument

Hi

So, that was interesting, I measured from A4 to F3, that mixed up the shortest to longest order that I had used from the blogpost chart, the shortest of the 3 clarinets which gives me C = E became the longest of the three, which may make the others E hp, and F. I like that idea, but it cannot be possible.

I also measured from MP tip to bottom hole, and on a Bb clarinet was 543, very close to the size given by the suggestor. However for my three small clarinets, it mixed the order again, making the one that gives me C = E the middle one of the group. These may still give me 2 E's and an F.

I also tried some other measurements but these instruments change their order, shortest to longest, depending upon where they are measured from.

Thanks for the suggestions, so far, I think I am moving forward.
