The resulting cut provides a suitable amount of resistance and quick response. The low range is rich and full of volume, while the high range has a clear feel to it. The player must produce a sufficient amount of air pressure when blowing through the hole. The result is a large range of freedom in sound and the ability to obtain beautiful reverberation. The C cut has a somewhat large undercut for smooth air flow.
Resistance is somewhat low.
The C cut is easy for players to control, and provides pleasant, warm reverberation. The result is a suitable amount of resistance and full reverberation. The low range sounds very good, and reverberation is rich. The chimney connects a flute's lip plate with the head joint. It is a very important part which determines the embouchurehole height and size.
