I love the American cut Legere reeds - as a relative beginner they make it so much easier to get a consistent mellow sound, even on a basic Yamaha 4C mouthpiece
Very nice, thank you.
Interestingly enough, I was able to pick out the VENN reed pretty directly, even though I play -- and am more used to hearing -- jazz. I like its sound; there is something more organic about it than the Legere reeds. However, I personally found the example I tried to be far too resistant, so it's been relegated to my desk drawer. For now, I'm sticking to my cane reeds.
I liked your sound best on the Vandoren. I was a little surprised because I'm a big advocate of synthetic reeds and choose to play on one (legere signature 3.0 on a selmer concept) over cane reeds in my day to day playing.
It’s been awhile lol, but do you play tenor? I’m a classical tenor player but there’s like 3 total on the internet and I can’t find a classical saxophonist trying tenor synth reeds. Have you played any other brand of synth? I just need some help finding one. Much appreciated!
The second reed sounded the best for me. And I thought it was the Vandoren.
Hmmm. I didn’t expect the last one to be the Venn.
I liked No.2 more .
