Hello,
This is my first post here. I'm taking up and learning to play the clarinet many decades after I played in high school. I just bought a used Noblet and I'm loving it. Playing Mozart again!
My question is what pickup should I get to amplify my clarinet. My plan it to play electric clarinet--to put the clarinet sound through effects, delays, loopers, and merge it with the sounds I make with my keyboard synthesizers.
From the research I've done, I want an internal pickup, like the one I see sold by PiezoBarrel, so I don't get feedback and I get the best possible clarinet tone as my source sound.
I'm open to any suggestions about how to go about this? One question already: if I go with a pickup that is drilled into the barrel, do I need to get a Noblet barrel, or can I use just any generic barrel? (I intend to keep playing classical music too, separate from the electronics.)
I'm also curious to know if anybody else is experimenting with electric clarinet.
Thanks,
Steve
