Designed to provide more flexibility, the M30 incorporates a very long facing and a large tip rail to produce a mouthpiece similar in sonority to the B40, with easier sound production qualities. |

MORE INFO
Profile 88 vs. Traditional Exteriors
The only difference between the "Traditional" and "Profile 88" mouthpieces is in the exterior angle of the beak. Therefore, the musician is free to choose the model which suits his purpose in terms of best playing position, easiest sound emission, greatest playing comfort and the most controllable and precise articulation. The "13" Series
Vandoren has developed the new "13" Series mouthpiece specifically for American clarinetists using A440 pitch. Five models have been elaborated with specific facings to this series: the M13, M13 Lyre, V13, M15 and the new M30 mouthpieces. The "13" series range also expands to other models (traditional facings) : 5RV, 5RV Lyre, B40, B45, M15 and M30. |

Received the M30 mpc with the traditional setup and I love it. It is free blowing, has a big sound, plays in tune throughout the entire range of the horn and is a great mpc for "legitimite" music. I'm glad I didn't give up on it after my experience with the M13 and Profile 88 options.

The M30 was highly recommended to me by other (and better) players but I found that it played really flat. I have 6 other Vandoren and Selmer mouthpieces (both open and closed) on a 40 year old Selmer Series 9 clarinet and have always had to adjust for playing pretty sharp. It may be the combination of the M13 and Profile 88 options, my older horn and my amateur embouchure, but I cannot play the M30 in tune. Unless you're an experienced player, I recommend a "try before you buy" approach for this mouthpiece if you choose the optional features. I have ordered an M30 with standard profile and without the M13 option and expect to get better results.

Best Vandoren mouthpiece that I have tried

The VanDoren M30 clarinet mouthpiece is a great mouthpiece for the concert band and orchestral clarinetist. This mouthpiece is very reed friendly, has easy emission, and with thicker rails, provides a darker sound. I know several orchestra players who play on this mouthpiece and they sound as good with their M30 as others do on more exspensive mouthpieces. With a VanDoren V12, 31/2 reed they are set for a great musical experience. I direct my students to try this mouthpiece when they are looking for a new one.

Beautiful and centered tone; in tune; flexible; good for staccato; matches the different registers; high notes speak easily; friendly to reeds. All good qualities!
