I have had my clarinet for just over a year and a half.
Since late last year,I have been having problems with ridiculous amounts of condensation gathering in it. I was wondering what could cause this and how it can be fixed?
The problem did not coincide with any reed size/brand changes or a change of mouthpiece. I have had it serviced recently and the problem is still there.
I have played for 10 years and this is the first time I`ve had this problem.
Just so you know, I am playing on a Yamaha 34B horn with a Clark W Fobes mouthpiece.

It maybe because of the weather change, as it went doing it after 6 months. Am I right? Where do you live? The weather plays a good role in condensation. And above all, every clarinet does a lot of condensation.

I was thinking that it might be the weather. I am in Australia so it is winter here and it has been quite cold. I`m not sure why it was happening last year.
At the moment I can`t even get through a concerto movement without having my clarinet fill with condensation.

Don`t worry. All clarinets do that. The condensation is very normal, and above all clarinets does not have a water content in them. You only have to drink plenty of water after finished playing.
