Today, I set up to compare four mouthpieces. I won't name them yet, but ask that you comment on how they sound, which sounds best to you, etc.
I'm unable to play the same thing the same way twice, but I did my best on this intro phrase. I recorded it with the music, then soloed each take. It's lossless format, so it has to be dowloaded. The file is about 5 megs, if you're on a 2400 baud phone line, don't even consider it. (Although that would only take about 5 minutes to download.)
I've recently been playing Vandoren Blue 2 reeds. Each take here is with the same reed, the same ligature and the same placement. I stood in the same place at the same distance from the mic.
