Re: Forked f' mechanism on Oehler/German clarinets

Thanks for the information, but I meant bottom space F - sorry, should have been clearer about that. I believe there is an oxo|ooo fingering that works on some Oehler/German clarinets: on most it's sharp, though the corresponding C a twelfth higher is generally ok. According to woodwind.org's fingering chart oxo|ooo does work on Austrian clarinets. According to the Kroll book, the Uebel mechanism makes it work on their standard clarinets, but I presume they have since dropped it.

I've been mostly playing recorder for the last few years and pretty much all makers provide fingering charts for their instruments, so I've got used to that. I have not seen any clarinet makers doing the same, so it's hard to find out about these slightly unusual fingerings.
