My ClariMate reed does not work/will not calibrate

Created by Clarimate USA, Modified on Fri, 12 Jul at 3:51 PM by Clarimate USA

Issues with reed calibration may be caused by the material of your clarinet mouthpiece. The Active Reeds are designed to be used with hard rubber mouthpieces and may not function correctly if your mouthpiece is made of a different material, like plastic. If you have questions about the material of your mouthpiece, please contact the manufacturer.


Issues with the Active Reeds may also be due to a manufacturing defect with the ClariMate’s carrying case. We regret to inform you that ClariMates with serial numbers below 5756 may have been shipped with a faulty case that may have damaged the included reeds. If you are using a hard rubber mouthpiece and experiencing issues with your reeds, please contact us.
