The "ping" IS air. They don't refer to a clarinet as a WOODWIND instrument for nothing.


You need to have more force behind the the air column by using your abdominal muscles. It will feel more like you are blowing up a resistant balloon. The idea being that you will then have a STEADY stream of FAST air. Another indicator that the sound is being produced correctly is that you will feel the body of the clarinet vibrating under your fingers, particularly in the chalemeau register.
