Product Information

The new ClariMate from Buffet is the first of its kind for clarinet players. According to Buffet it's much more than just a mute, in fact they claim it will redefine the way you practice and enjoy the clarinet. So, what is it and how does it work? Let's dive in…

What is the ClariMate?

Essentially the ClariMate is a reversible hybrid instrument that allows you to turn your clarinet into an electronic wind instrument. It can be used on any Bb or A clarinet and it works via a high-quality breath sensor with realistic clarinet settings. You can plug headphones in to hear yourself whilst others will hear virtually nothing. It also has lots of functionality for connectivity which allows you to play-along with backing tracks.

It can be used alongside the ClariMate app where you can train the app to match your exact instrument. This allows you to perfect the feel and sound to your instrument. You can set-up multiple clarinets in the app so you can switch between your Bb and A. The ClariMate uses an ‘active reed’ which sits on your own mouthpiece and ligature.

Why Buy a ClariMate?

The ability to practice anywhere or any time whilst blowing and fingering normally is something clarinet players have never been able to do. The ClariMate not only allows this near-silent practice BUT it's packed full of tech to ensure you can enjoy all the connectivity possible with the app and your devices.

The ClariMate is ideal for beginners and advanced clarinettists. For those just starting out it can be used as a finger training device and allows for silent practice. Players who have access to a digital audio workstation (DAW) can even use it to record songs. Advanced players can use it to practice at any time, plus dive into the endless possibilities of the MIDI capabilities.
