Real Clarinet

# Real Clarinet — Tracking Notes

> Tracking and preparation notes for live clarinet in classical projects.
> **See also:** [Clarinet Practice](#) notebook (under *Practice*) for daily exercises, technique, études, and repertoire preparation.

## Instrument

- **Make / model:** *(fill in)*
- **Key:** B♭ soprano (standard)
- **Range (written):** D3 to B♭6 (concert C#3 to A♭6)
- **Extended techniques available:** (fill in — flutter tongue, altissimo, etc.)

## Recording Chain

| Position | Mic | Distance | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main | *(small-diaphragm condenser — fill in)* | ~30 cm from bell, slightly off-axis | Captures full body |
| Room (optional) | *(fill in)* | ~1.5–2 m | Adds hall ambience |

## Repertoire Fit (which Klassik projects use it)

| Project | Role | Doubling / Solo |
|---|---|---|
| Klassik — Baermann Romanze | **Solo** | Featured |
| Klassik — Kegelduette | Duet part | Possibly multiple layered takes |
| Klassik — Die Moldau | Doubles / solos within orchestration | Sample clarinet underneath, real on top |
| Klassik — Weihnachts-Oratorium | (scope-dependent — only if movements with clarinet are selected) | TBD |
| Klassik — Pérotin Sederunt | **Not used** (organum, no clarinet) | n/a |

## Workflow

1. Score prepared (with part for clarinet extracted)
2. Multiple takes tracked (3 minimum)
3. Comp pass — choose best passages per phrase
4. Light corrective EQ, light de-essing if needed
5. Sit in mix: real clarinet prominent, sample clarinet below for thickness
6. Send to main hall reverb bus

## Maintenance

- Reeds: *(brand / strength)*
- Last service: *(date)*
