There is another German-made synthetic alternative that has apparently been around for a number of years, although I've only become aware of it in the past few weeks, the Harry Hartmann Fiberreed. There are several models for French Boehm-style mouthpieces. I'm still experimenting and am not yet at the point where I would recommend them enthusiastically, but my first experiences with their Carbon Fiber Classic Boehm model seems positive.
I am becoming more convinced that the quality of a player's result with Legere and Forestone depends very heavily on a match between the reed and the mouthpiece, and that isn't all a matter of the facing. I recently heard from someone that Ricardo Morales went through a process with a well known mouthpiece maker to develop a mouthpiece on which he felt comfortable using Legeres. Maybe more mouthpiece makers will need to concentrate their expertise on developing more specifically Legere- or Forestone- friendly mouthpieces that may be significantly different inside and outside from the ones that they make for use with cane reeds.
