The windway of a recorder

The windway is the area in the instrument headpiece where the blowing air is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air leaf is the nucleus of the sound of the recorder. 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 applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the response and sound of the recorder.

The windway of the model 459DB-SL-PBK of Paetzold by Kunath has this windway shape: Straight, conical.
