Try rubber O-rings, about 3/16" thick material ... the top one the size of a nickle and the bottom one slightly larger. Really opens the sound up ... I stole this idea from another thief ...
Rico's ligature similar to the Harrison H ligature is surprisingly OK ... IMHO works better than it looks like it might ... I don't know the theory behind the design.
I've used Rovner mostly in past but now back to 36" waxed dress shoestring ... cost is 2 for $1.80 ... The "string" ligature is easy to apply (15 seconds) and holds my plastic and cane reeds to my standard French MP (no grooves) with no problems ... I keep my Rovner at close reach, in case I get caught with not enough time to wrap the string ...
Many ligatures claim performance "approaching a string ligature" ... so why not just use real string?
Biggest disadvantage of string is it staying in place when swapping clarinets ... maybe the Pyne ligature might be the answer?
