 Re: Legere Signature vs. Insanity

Really great players can accomplish miracles on any set up. For me, being under-trained, under-practiced and over the hill, I need all the help I can get.

I will try the signatures, and see if this addresses some of my concerns ... The local music store stocks mostly kids stuff, so I have to mail order most things of interest ... But now, each synthetic reed costs a box of real reeds!

I have found the Legere regular cut to be surprisingly inconsistent as well, but not as bad as a box of Vandorens. I think Legere cuts all the reeds the same and adjust the strength by adjusting the chemistry of the reed material. I can see this might be difficult to manage ...

In addition, many good players using Legere might be adjusting or taking some material off the reed. I play them as I get them ...

I do soak my synthetics in warm water for a few minutes to help them get past the "warm up" period, although I think most of the warm up is due to internal friction from vibration.
