 Re: In search of a smaller sound.

Robin,

I am an ex-Loree player and a recent Marigaux 901 player.

The reeds for the Loree needed to be very exact to get the Timbre/tone quality I wanted. It seemed with the Loree the instrument was very reed dependent.

My Marigaux on the other hand - is not as reed dependent to produce a very beautiful and professional tone. Thus, the reeds are easier to make - the sound in my Marigaux is "Built In". It radiates from the lower joint and bell. All I need is for my reeds to be responsive in all the required attributes.

The Loree reed required the classic and very carefully defined tip, heart and windows. My Marigaux reed have a very defined tip/blend heart - however, beyond that - the rest is relatively easy - basically two channels - with slightly more removed from the back channels. The heart is much less defined in comparison to the rest of the reed.

As I said - if the reed is responsive - the beautiful sound is there.
