 Re: problem notes on bass clarinet?

This is just a guess, but...
At least on my selmer bass clarinet, the 2nd finger of the left hand (L2) closes two pads, one immediately under L2, and another under L3. The two pads have to be set up to come down together over their tone holes. If there is a slight mis-alignment, I guess it's possible that you could get a stuffy D4 or D#4 because one of these two pads might be very slightly open. Lower notes might be better because when you press L3, it also adds a bit of extra pressure that would help to close these two pads.
