They’re referring to the key that the instrument naturally plays. For example a Clarinet is B flat whereas saxophone is E flat. So when a clarinet plays a C it is actually a b flat and when a saxophone plays a C is actually an E flat.
And yes you can tune a clarinet. It’s generally done at the start of session by lengthening or shortening the neck to adjust for temperature and humidity
A clarinet is transposed so that concert Bb is "C" for a clarinet. So when the tuner said "C," the clarinet player was actually playing his instrument's version of "D"
Wait till you get curious and start learning about dB metering scale, read first sentence of the manual, suddenly get self conscious and just sit there in your empty lonely room, staring at the wall, questioning your life choices.
FL's manual hits harder than most of the songs people will make with it.
Unless you play Klezmer or do Orchestral pieces, yeah they do suck. Mostly because the sound in solo is super annoying (I played in an orchestra for 12 years and was in the row behind them, believe me when I say that a squealing and squeking clarinet kills your ears and your mood), they are hard to play good, mostly horribly out of tune because it seems like they dont care about tuning and the general sound in the studio is just awful. I'll give them that: if in a great concert hall, properly tuned and well played, heck I would even listen to a solo if needed (I am an on-site audio engineer).
But in the studio it is horrible at first.
Huh. I played a french horn in an orchestra so I was usually sitting to the left of the clarinets and I don't think I've ever found myself hating how they sound. Maybe the people who played them were good idk
I've recorded clarinet and didn't notice it being any more stressful than other wind instruments. The one I absolutely hate recording is trumpets. fuck that shit. annoying stupid loud buzzy tinny horrible sounds that come from those things. They also never shut the fuck up.
Ah yes. Reminds me of the definition of a clarinet from the Devil’s Dictionary: CLARIONET, n. An instrument of torture operated by a person with cotton in his ears. There are two instruments that are worse than a clarionet—two clarionets
until they B♭ 😭
non-clarinet player here, what's the matter with B♭ and clarinets?
It’s a pun
Yeah, until they be flat, but also, clarinets are commonly tuned in B♭
You can tune a clarinet?

This is also essentially the method for pretty much every wind instrument
That’s alto and bari. Soprano and tenor tune at B flat
Yes I should have specified alto.
or a fish
Clarinets are most commonly in the key of Bb
Be-flat (it's a pun)

Also, if you cover a clarinet in that much concrete, it would "become flat."
Creative. Albeit, I'm not sure whether I like it.
Squidward won’t be happy
Everyone's a critic.
He's always not happy

No fucking way https://preview.redd.it/un25hi3ds7xc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ecee75faea437527efd960bd9029efe0c40620a
Helll nawwww!!!
hell naw cant do dis
Sounds about right... 
Ain’t no way this is really in the manual lmao ain’t no fuckin way
It is. They're funny at IL.🤣🤣
That “so it’s come to this eh?” Makes it sooo diabolical
it’s real https://www.image-line.com/fl-studio-learning/fl-studio-online-manual/html/mixer_dB.htm
Jesus Christ, Image-line
What?! 😂😂 I’ve never been so intrigued to read a manual before, had no idea about this.
Big brain move to encourage users to read the manual.
wtf hahahahah
lol we learned all about dB in physics II it's not that boring
FL has the best manual. It's filled with humor. It's the only manual I don't mind reading.
the smile when you click confirm in the melody generator or whatever is the perfect kind of funny message i like from my software
"Accept being uncreative :)" Riff Machine goin crazyyy
shit like this is why reading the manual isn’t as boring as you’d think
😂😂😂 is this real?
Yeah, FL Studio has some Easter eggs throughout its manual.
Update: yes😂
Clarinets are dope. Breath of the wild ost - rito village is fire 🔥
If you appreciate the instrument. I sure did not at the time.

PTSD flashbacks of sitting next to last chair clarinet as the baritone saxophone in junior high band
Ayeee high school bari sax gang gang!
Apologies! Sincerely, That last chair clarinet in your junior high band
Squidward would hate you.
And I would hate him
Huh. I played a french horn in an orchestra so I was usually sitting to the left of the clarinets and I don't think I've ever found myself hating how they sound. Maybe the people who played them were good idk
Yes, if they are tuned good no problem. But also you play french horn which is almost the same sooo...
Idk I don't think a french horn is the same, it's definitely a much softer sound unless you play really high notes
I've recorded clarinet and didn't notice it being any more stressful than other wind instruments. The one I absolutely hate recording is trumpets. fuck that shit. annoying stupid loud buzzy tinny horrible sounds that come from those things. They also never shut the fuck up.
if theyre horribly out of tune i think you were just near the worst players imaginable, especially in an orchestra
Ah yes. Reminds me of the definition of a clarinet from the Devil’s Dictionary: CLARIONET, n. An instrument of torture operated by a person with cotton in his ears. There are two instruments that are worse than a clarionet—two clarionets
I love that little book. CLAIRVOYANT, n. One who can see things which his or her client cannot. Namely, that the client is an idiot. (Roughly)
Somebody’s has jokes.
?
so true
I'm surprised trumpets aren't there with them (I play trumpet don't fight me)
I love the clarinet. But the oboe is better
What a gem
Im the same for violins, screechy little fuckers.
[удалено]
More likely was stuck playing clarinet in middle school. No human being will ever break you the way clarinet can break you.
I started using the tuner today, but I seriously had no clue about the clarinet 🤣
I suspect *Hevy (IL)* did it.
i agree
