I think the standard semi-automatics will remain unchanged as that's the simplest design for them, and the design that's familiar with everyone.

The two S40c oboes fitted with this new design are testbeds - I played the one I finished last night to see how well it works, and it did the job very well.

Only thing I missed was the 2nd 8ve touch (for LH finger 1) when going from C to top C - I hit the trill keys instead! But a 2nd 8ve touch can be added if wanted which will duplicate the back 8ve key's action, and make those octave jumps from C to top C easier by players used to semi-autos.
