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 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. This is the origin of the recorder tone. This is the reason why the labium must never be damaged. The same rule applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the variability of musical expressiveness of the recorder.

The windway of the recorder 70180-KUN of Kunath has this windway shape: Straight cylindrical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical windways.
