Re: Pads for Albert system Bb

I've used leather pads from Instrument Clinic and also from Music Medic in Albert system clarinets. I've used the same pads in saltspoon cups, in the thinnest size I can get. I fix a small disc of card to the back of the pad. Mostly this is just to fill some of the volume in the cup, but it also adds some stiffening to the pad. I use punchings from an ordinary squeeze-type leather hole punch, using the most suitable size from the 6 available on the punch. Oboe pads work in saltspoon cups as well.
