Subject: C vs B footjoints
 
Hello Flautists and Doublers (I count myself in the latter category).
 
I have been playing sax and clarinet for over 50 years with the occasional foray 
into the flute.  About 5 years ago I started to practice the flute exclusively 
and have been glad to find the sax always there when I reach for it.  Over the 
years I have always experimented with equipment, barrels for the clarinet and a 
LOT of modifications on the sax.  I also make my own mouthpieces.  I find myself 
bemused over footjoints.  Sometimes I like a C, sometimes I go for the B.  I 
have even made a keyless B footjoint which is also the occasional right answer.
 
I am interested in people's actual experience with the differences between the 
two.  When do you like to use which, what do you percieve, what do listeners 
hear?  I have C and B footjoints for most of my flutes and am still shy of any 
definitive conclusions.  In fact, compared to the sax and clarinet, I find it 
difficult to come up with any generalities that last more than a day or so.
 
Any thoughts and insights from the congregation would be appreciated.
