Sometimes a bit crisper with smaller instruments

The windway of a recorder

The windway is the area in the recorder head where the breath is formed into a sheet of air. This air leaf is of one of the most important elements of tone production. At the labium, the air stream is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging flow stimulates the air in the bore. 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 musical shaping ability of the recorder.

The windway of the model 205A-AUL of Aulos has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate breathing air more than cylindrical windways.
Never underestimate windway and labium! Their meaning for the sound is uncommon complex in their geometric shape. Damages here often lead to a total loss!
