The balance I have always striven for is one where the same embouchere gets me anywhere on the horn, any interval ascending or descending, where the only necessary control is the appropriate wind pressure. The exception to this would be large leaps into the bottom of the first octave, where some relaxation of the embouchere is necessary to allow the reed the wider excursion it needs at those frequencies.
The ideal embouchere pressure is just a tad more than needed to contain the wind pressure. If you need to bite the pitch up, not only will you tire rapidly but you are restricting the reed's vibration to the detriment of your sound.
BF51 - I've got the copy of the deLancie tip in my catalog. It's definitely on the wide side of the spectrum, though not as wide as Joe Robinson's canoe paddle.
I'll be glad to send you one if you want to try it..
