 Re: Legere European cut is too flat

I started clarinet playing a B45 series 13. And now I play on a slightly more closed mouthpiece (tip opening 113) with Legere Euro #4.25, R13, and stock 66 mm R13 barrel. I tune to 440-441 with this setup, and given the intonation characteristics of my instrument, I am sure a shorter barrel will allow me to tune to 442-443 if I need to.

But I still have the B45 laying around. I occasionally try playing on it just for fun. When I play the B45 with the Legere Euro #4.25, I do not have any problems in terms of tuning. The only problem for me is that it is slightly too hard for me. However, it plays really flat on my Vandoren Masters CL5 series 13, and the Legere this time feels too soft.

So if you are playing super flat right now, I would suggest trying some harder strength Legeres. I think if the Legere is too soft, it will play flat. This usually happens to soft reeds in general.
