 Re: Ambipoly reeds

I tried the latest version of Ambipoly reed and they were very very stuffy compared to my regular cane reeds. I had to use a lot of energy to make a sound. Half of the reed was covered with plastic, not sure if that was the reason. Also the "tying" process is using some wire (like on a bassoon reed) and then using some heat shrink tubing type polymer for making it leakproof, but it broke when I was trying to remove the reed from my oboe. Not as good as traditional thread tying. Also, they say you can scrape the reed, but I am not an expert reed maker and I don't want to do anything destructive on a 145 dollar reed! I had to return it too.
