If the pedal borrow is from the 4rth man Solo, then it is the Cromorne (stoplist of the last 1992 restoration; but if it is from the Positif, it is the Clarinette 8', (because Notre-Dame has rather unique 16, 8 and 4' Clarinettes on the Positif !) although this Clarinette (from the Positif) is constitued of 18th Century material and is therefore a rather a Cromorne, the ancester of the Clarinette ! (and rather close soundwise in the French organ)
Yes it definitely sounds allot more like a cromorne than a clarinet! Not to say it's a bad stop, but it just doesn't sound like a clarinet to me. If you have a voix humana that sounds more like an oboe or regal... it's a bad voix humana, that doesn't mean it sounds bad, it just doesn't sound the way it is supposed to. In my opinion this doesn't sound like a clarinet, at least not like the orchestral clarinets in old American organs that I am used to. The flutes on manuals sound LOVELY though!!!!
At Notre-Dame, there is the "pédalier coupé", (cut pedalboard, where you can couple any manuals in the trebles for your right foot to create at least a 4rth voice) and Latry here coupled either the Clarinette from the Positif (2nd) or the Cromorne from the Solo (4rth) JW
I like the color of the shoes He's wearing.

If that is a clarinet, it's one of the worst clarinets I've ever heard.

On the Pedal, there is the 8' Chalumeau, but I think it is the 8' Clarinette from the Positif.
