My electronic bass clarinet setup and shopping list

In Winter 2025, I started getting into electronic bass clarinet playing. I was really inspired by Christopher Mothersole and had contributed to his consortium for his Delaytudes. I finally worked up the courage (and budget) to get started, and this post is a list of the gear that I chose as a beginner electronic bass clarinetist. I chose many of these things from observing the those who came before me like Chris Mothersole, Michael Lowenstern, Boxwood Currents, and my own experimentation. Happy electrifying!
