Re: Synthetic Reeds: Legere and PlayNick

Dan Shusta, I am afraid that your post is somehow misleading because there is no Nick-Legere reed anymore and again, the comparison is between a Nick/legere and Legere SAX reed. So you think the SAX reed sounds better?

Yes, I played both. On my Playeasy mouthpiece, which is originally designed for Legere Classic reeds, I would say Master Cut reeds are better than Legere European Cut in terms of intonation and response. As for sound, it is difficult to say, as a German system clarinet player, my sound concept might be very different from you. Sorry, I only have one B2 for German system clarinet because normally I use German mouthpiece with German cut reeds. Nice to know that Playnick will also release a German cut synthetic reed, the German cut reeds from Legere do not work well on some mouthpieces.
