    Just FYI, when I say I prefer this clarinet, I mean the first one :). Thanks for watching!

      Tried any clarinets by any other makers? Try Yamaha CSG and SE Artist 😛

      @@musokid89 I haven't in a while. I have found that the other makers don't have as much of a ring as the Buffets do, but again, it has been a while.

      @@TheCandidClarinetist others (Yamaha / Selmer/Ubel) may not have that “ring “ or “ping” that some (older) buffets had but intonation wise they are much better. Perhaps consider Trying a Selmer Signature. It’s awesome
      When you’re in an ensemble , they like intonation over that personal “sound.”

    Great video and thanks for all that you do. I will be trying clarinets this summer and am sort of lost about which temperature you should do this test. I watched your interview with Michael Wayne and am curious if you play the twelfths straight out of the case or if you get the instrument very warm or somewhere in between. Thank you!

    This guy seems more like a rock band type than a symphony type. Didn't know that symphonic people could be so cool.

    I’m new to the clarinet world been doing some research on the clarinet because i have been thinking about picking up a new instrument. Ive only played one instrument and i played the flute up until 5+yrs ago. I took a break from playing.

    Sam, what is that tuner you have on the bottom right of the video? That is a nice interface, but I have no idea what it is or where to find it. Thanks in advance!

    Hi!
    My Evette clarinet made by buffet crampon says D8XXX for the serial number. made in France. do you think this is a good instrument?
    B flat. wood. sounds nice. plays well, I think... the notes are very accurate, but I am no expert. I bought it at a yard over the weekend. never played before that! haha.

    • @TheCandidClarinetist

      Hard to know without trying it! Every instrument is different. Maybe take it to a local teacher and have them try it?

    It's very nice, but the sound is to diffuse for me. I prefer the more "direct" sound of the Tosca.

      Interesting! I feel like the opposite is true for my tradition vs. the Tosca

    Thanks for the video and congrats on the new horn. Regarding the 12ths, how far apart in cents do you deem acceptable? Thanks again.

    • @TheCandidClarinetist
      @TheCandidClarinetist  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If you watch the podcast episode with Michael Wayne, he says 5 cents. I'm a little more lenient, probably 7 cents. There are still ones here that are a little further ( low E, B for example), but those are ones that I can get corrected with a vent. The biggest one for me is the G, D 12th. That one can be wayyy off, as it was with the second clarinet.

      Also, I forgot to mention in the video that the next thing I am going to do is shop for a barrel. This can help with some of those left hand ones that were a little further than would be ideal

      @@TheCandidClarinetist Thanks that is really useful. I am a 'returning' clarinetist (21 years without playing). I have been getting back up to standard on a 2nd hand student plastic model (Buffet B12) and am working towards grade 8 ABRSM (UK). I want to invest in a professional model to take me through grade 8 and to hopefully join some amateur orchestras and ensembles but have been very nervous about the process of picking the right instrument so this video really helps (good timing). I will 100% check out the podcast episode with Michael Wayne.

      @@simonob007 wow good for you! I always very much admire those that come back to playing after a long time away. I think one big takeaway that I had from his episode is that you aren't looking for the perfect setup. Some things will be a little out of tune, or there might be a few notes that aren't quite perfect, but that is ok. It took me changing my mindset from finding the perfect setup to just finding something that is going to be more helpful to me than what I am currently on.

    Great video Sam! I've been wanting to try out the 2nd generation Tradition's for a while now! I think you were trialing some RC Prestiges as well, what gave the Traditions the edge for you?

    • @TheCandidClarinetist
      @TheCandidClarinetist  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! Couple of things:
      1. Pitch
      2. RC's were a little too far in the "Pingy" direction for me. Tradition is a good compromise between something like a Tosca, and an R13
      3. Traditions have a nice smooth legato and evenness.
      Appreciate you watching, buddy! Love your video work.

      @@TheCandidClarinetist Sorry for so many questions! Can you elaborate on your answers to 1 and 2? What specifically about the pitch? And how do you think about the Tosca compared with R13? I personally have always preferred RC's to R13's every time I compare them.

    • @TheCandidClarinetist
      @TheCandidClarinetist  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@nica1639 No worries! What I am looking for in the pitch is for the 12ths to be close together. So when I push the register key, the lower note is the same or similar amount flat/sharp to the upper note. I prefer the tosca/tradition/legende sound to the r13/RC family. It is a much more broad and warm sound, where the R13 family is more pingy and bright.

    Classical music, as performed today, is a poor yardstick to evaluate the clarinet. Jazz and blues are better yardsticks. If they play well in tune, perfect 12ths, sustained classical tone etc, all clarinets sound almost the same. But when you throw the pitch slightly out of whack, then we hear the 90% of ignored frequencies. They reveal true 'speech' of an instrument.
