*TIMBRE-MATCH? On many wind instruments the different registers actually sound like they are different instruments, rather than the same instrument playing a higher or lower note. For most clarinets, upgrading to an instrument quality hardwood barrel which is properly tuned will homogenize the tones (in fact, the entire spectral envelope) throughout all registers so that the listener is able to recognize that the instrument is the same clarinet whether the clarinetist plays an E3 or an E7.
