  TONGUING
With the tongue against the reed, and breath pressure against the tongue before the tone is started, wind pressure continues against the reed when the tongue returns to it to stop the tone.
The tongue acts as a valve, releasing and stopping the flow of air through the instrument with the pressure remaining constant, much as the flow of water through a faucet is turned on and off.
Double tonguing is executed by rapid movements of the tongue, as in pronouncing the syllables “tu-ku.” The “tu” is articulated in the usual fashion on the reed, while the “ku” is produced by the tongue against the palate to stop the flow of air.

 TONGUING
By skillful use of the tongue and breath the flutist is able to reproduce the sound and effect of the multitude of bow strokes used by a fine string player, plus the effects of double tonguing, triple tonguing, and flutter tonguing.
As a general rule the tongue moves downward on the teeth as the notes become louder or as the pitch range gets lower, and moves higher on the teeth and onto the gum itself as the notes become softer or as the pitch range is higher.
With the tongue completely relaxed and using firm breath support, the flutter tongue is produced by rolling the tongue rapidly against the roof of the mouth as in rolling the letter “R” in “b-r-r-r,” producing a very rapid tremolo.

Two ways: use the tongue to actually flutter without using the reed, and two, use the same motion as clearing your throat, both will affect the sound of flutter tonguing.
To attempt to instruct in a new or renewing situation, do not use the tongue on the reed, but hold it slight backward and repeat the syllable "de" very quickly until it becomes somewhat like fluttering, indiscernible movement of the tongue, very quickly.

 Jacqueline Leclair - Flutter Tonguing
Flutter-tongue is produced by the relaxed tongue being raised to "get in the way" of the air stream traveling through the oral cavity, resulting in the tongue fluttering.
(The exact point of the flutter can be farther forward or back in the mouth.) This flutter technique is characterized by the tip of the tongue remaining motionless (against the lower teeth), and some point of the tongue fluttering against the roof of the mouth.
Since the tip of the tongue and the embouchure remain in their normal positions, the oboist's control remains virtually unaffected.

Flutter tonguing is featured in a couple of the patches and can be switched to on-the-fly through key-switching in the main patch (accessible through most of the patches is staccato and sustained notes, so you aren't stuck with one articulation or another with any of the presets).
For instance you can switch between regular sustained notes and flutter tonguing through aftertouch, adjust air filter control with support through a breath controller, adjust vibrato through the mod wheel and control the resonance of the normal sustain and flutter through general purpose controllers (3, 4 and 5).
The sustained samples (except some of the flutter tongue samples) are looped, and the loop points aren't audible at all.

To tongue correctly, you draw the lips tightly across the upper and low teeth by drawing the corners of the mouth up into a slight smile.
Later we will introduce you to the use of tonguing strokes based on the beginning of different words as well as to double, triple and flutter tonguing.
If you tongue too strongly, either by using too hard a tonguing sound, or by raising the pressure of the air in your mouth too high, the sound will explode into your recorder and the tone will be coarse and hard.

The student was working on the double tonguing section of Arban and Jerry, being blind, was running his fingers over the student's face as he played.
It sounded like he was flutter tonguing, but was clean and precise.
As far as rapid multiple tonguing goes, Jerry recommended using D and G syllables rather than the more commonly found T and K. I found that by using these syllables that my tonguing speed and clarity did increase quite a bit.

 Native American Flute Forum   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
Rather than tonguing successive notes with 'tu' at the beginning of each note, you start the second note with a percussive sound from your throat, best described by quickly enunciating 'tu-ku." You might do this for two reasons.
This sound is actually produced during the duration of the note (as opposed to being specifically used to start the note), and is accomplished by literally fluttering your tongue in your mouth while making the flute produce a note.
You can "flutter in" to a note, using the flutter tongue from the initial attack, or use one of the other attacks, and change to the flutter tongue.

 Suggestions for the Performance of Berio's Sequenza VII   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
Double tonguing on the oboe is performed by alternating standard attacks (in which the tip of the tongue comes into direct contact with the reed) with attacks in which the tongue contacts the top palate of the mouth.
Flutter tonguing is achieved by rolling an 'r' either with the tongue or the uvula.
The shortcoming of this type of flutter tonguing is that it requires slight embouchure adjustment which decreases stability in the extreme high and low register, and it produces a relatively more violent sound.

 Masterclass with Conrad Herwig: An Introduction to Doodle Tonguing
In double tonguing, the dominant sounds are "t" or "d," and the rebound, or passive, sounds are "g" or "k"--"tuh-kuh-tuh-kuh," or "duh-guh-duh-guh." If you're playing classical music or get called for a studio date, you have to have double tonguing in your arsenal.
The difference between double tonguing and doodle tonguing is that in double (and triple) tonguing, the rebound has a harder syllabic pronunciation.
In doodle tonguing, the dominant consonant is also "d" or "t," but the rebound sound is "l," (actually, "ul").

There is NO incorrect way of tonguing, but there is a correct way given traditionally: that of placing the "tip of the tongue" on the tip of the reed.
The tongue can be in a dozen different position depending upon your use of the language and the particular set of the student's embouchure.
Place the tongue, the smallest amount possible at what is considered the tip of the reed and allow a bit of air to escape into the instrument (you will hear the air escaping).
