Well in my experience, the low cut (really referred to mostly as a "High Pass Filter") is essential in many multi track scenarios. Every track ADDS another instance of LOW content and the energy just builds and builds and builds. This is not so true for high material since there is a practical range above which most cannot hear. Also, there is the idea that higher upper partials influence the audible range and should be left present particularly for classical music applications. According to the chart I referenced last night, low concert "D" (our lowest Bb clarinet note) is 146.84 cycles per second. There should be no NEED to have lower material present on an acapella clarinet recording. A 120 cycle low cut filter is more than appropriate. If you add a piano though......sub contra notes can be as low as 16 cycles.

Ok, for practical scenarios where you, the end user are providing a recording of unaccompanied clarinet for adjudication, would you not want the final (and really only) recording to be peaking close to zero dB? I personally would not want the receiver of the file to have to turn up their volume to hear the submission. Again, my reference is the very peaks of the material and 0dB. Also, realistically speaking there will be less dynamic range on a solo clarinet recording than a recording of a full ensemble with percussion section (and it is the percussion is what challenges the peak metering!).
