 Re: Adding a vent hole to the bell of a bass clarinet?

It makes sense that the vent hole aids in tuning, but why would the design require it to begin with, if there was not some other advantage? In other words, could not the design be altered in other ways to bring the low C into tune, rather than just adding a hole to the bell?

Clarnibass, as someone who has experience with both Buffet and Selmer basses in good adjustment, could you describe what causes the qualitative differences between them, in the lower chalumeau?

Mojobari, did you mean to say that you purchased a bell with a higher positioned low C hole? I have never seen a bell with a low C# hole.
