A great to alternative to Legere ... but different

Morgan1972 30.07.2023

As any synthetic reeds, it's a durable and very consistent one which is to like . I loved the fact that Yamaha decided to give its reeds the same colour and feel as a cane one . It's slightly gritty on the tongue versus the plastic softness of the Legere .
In term of sound (I choose a 2.5) i found it slightly darker than the bright Legere studio . The response is maybe a bit slower and the reed harder on the lips than the Legere .
Overall, it's a great one to try but I find that articulations are easier on Legere . Again I only tried 1 strength but i think it's a good option to help students achieve consistency if they struggle with squeaky noises .

Nichts zu beanstanden!!! Nothing to complain about!!!

Habe dieses Blatt für Alt sowie Tenor geordert und war von beiden positiv überrascht! Wirklich leichte Ansprache von Tief bis Hoch,passen auch zu meinen Rousseau Mundstücken.Außer das sie sehr glatt sind habe ich nichts zu beanstanden und da darf es auch eine Sekunde länger dauern,das Blatt ordentlich zu positionieren!!!

I ordered this sheet for alto and tenor and was pleasantly surprised by both! Really easy response from low to high, also fits my Rousseau mouthpieces. Apart from the fact that they are very smooth, I have nothing to complain about and it can take a second longer to position the reed properly!!!
