Re: humidify clarinet case?

Hello,
I live in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where humidity is typically 10%. My clarinets cracked when I moved here.
Now I keep my clarinets and reeds in a closet with a humidifying machine which I keep "on" all the time and automatically regulates the humidity. I also have a hygrometer in there to measure the humidity. It stays at around 50% (or whatever I set the humidifier to). The practice room is dryer, but that seems to be OK, because for most hours of the day, the instrument is in a humid environment. If you humidify the whole room, it being a larger space, you end up having the machine pumping all day long.
