Table A6

Order of magnitude of equivalent clarinet reed parameters (resonance frequency, quality factor, compliance) of reed alone. L_f is defined in Figure A1, x_t is the distance between the reed tip and the sensor, f₁ is the resonance frequency, Q₁ is the quality factor, C₁ is the equivalent compliance of the first vibration mode and $K_{1} = \frac{1}{C_{1}}$ ${K}_1=\frac{1}{{C}_1}$ is the equivalent stiffness.
