Playing ponticello (close to the bridge as possible)with a fast bow speed and a soft bow pressure. You can get harmonics on every inch of the string using this. Even the harmonics that don't 'speak' easily can be produced clearly by doing this. The left hand lightly touches the string without pushing it onto the fingerboard.

Thanks dude! I must say that your tracks running clarinet into sound processing channels is the inspiration behind my stuff with return tracks.
