Truthfully, Tony, I'm not even sure what a lot of it says. It's a very detailed analysis of the harmonic distribution of one instrument. Getting into the weeds of his analysis would take more careful reading than I have the time to give it, and I'm not sure, having only skimmed it, how much of the detail is within the level of my training.
My interest is in the effect of the distribution of a reed's resistance on the quality and harmonic content of a clarinet tone. I searched (digitally) for any mention of the reed itself and only found a few incidental references to the way the equipment was set up. There's nothing that I can find about the part the reed and, more specifically, its geography/topography, play in generating the harmonic spectrum of an individual clarinet tone.
