The windway of a recorder

The windway is the area in the recorder head where the breath of the musician is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air leaf is the basis of the sound production. At the labium, the air stream is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging flow stimulates the air in the body of the instrument. And this is the origin of the recorder sound. This is the reason why the labium must not be damaged in any case. The same rule applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the variability of the available sound spectra of the recorder.

The windway of the recorder 1201-KUE of Küng has this windway shape: Straight cylindrical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate breathing air more than cylindrical windways.
Never underestimate windway and labium! Their meaning for the voicing is exceedingly complex in their geometric shaping. Even minor damages here often lead to a total loss!
