SILENT PRACTICE, DIGITAL PLAY The ClariMate is a reversible hybrid instrument manufactured in the UK and designed in partnership with Buffet Crampon and Audio Inventions LTD that allows you to use your clarinet for silent practice and digital music creation. It uses high precision sensors and patented note recognition technology to translate reed, breath, and fingerings into digital signals. Connect your wired headphones to the ClariMate to play silently with a virtual, sample-based clarinet synthesizer, or connect it to a computer, tablet, or phone to use it as a MIDI controller and unlock the possibilities of digital music creation. The ClariMate can be used in standalone mode without the use of a computer, phone, or tablet, but must be connected to the ClariMate app for setup and configuration.
