Sound examples

A. ÝNatural clarinet sound for a slow tonehole closing : download

B. ÝSimulated sounds :

All the following sounds have been simulated for :

- closing time = 30000 samples ;

- sampling frequency = 44.1 kHz ;

- lengthes of the bore : L₁ = 0.487m / L₂ = 0.059m ;

- side-branch radius = 3.5e^-3m ;

- side-branch length = 1.05e^-3m.
