 Re: Middle B squeaks but Low E is fine

Another possibility: Maladjustment of the bridge key so that the uppermost pad on the lower joint is not quite sealing completely. Although you might think this would affect both the chalumeau and middle ("clarinet"?) registers equally, we all know that the lowest register is more tolerant of leaks and other shenanigans than the higher registers; so that the low E may seem fine but the middle B might not speak easily. This is a very common problem on bass clarinets, anyway.
