 Re: Reed "Pop"

The reason to do the pop test is to determine if the reed is not sealing tightly on the facing of the mouthpiece which for me at least, causes delayed entrances and a slight lose of control in the extreme high register. I only do it to determine if it is leaking if I feel a problem so I can try to correct it, I don't suggest one just keep doing to entertainment. I have found, especially on my bass clarinet, that by raising the ligature and tightening it it can temporarily "seal" the reed at the time.
