Independent shopping perspective
Rovner's nickel Versa X is a Bb-clarinet ligature with an adjustable cradle presentation: cover it or leave it exposed. The two positions let a player align the ligature's setup with the musical situation described here. A covered cradle is associated with added warmth for intimate work and ballads, while the exposed arrangement is favored in amplified jazz, rock, and blues settings. It also gives classical players an option to expose the cradle when difficult acoustics or a strong orchestra demand a change.
