I like Legeres the past couple years (since European Cut came out). For cane I like Mitchell Lurie. Grew up on Vandorens.
Right now , Légère European cut. I’ve not had a great deal of experience with different reeds, having only tried Ricos and Vandorens. But both were so inconsistent. The Légère was like a breath of fresh air. Albeit an expensive breath…
For most horns, I’ve switched to D’Addario. Some years ago I felt they were way more consistent than Vandoren. I still recommend Vandoren to my students, as the local stores only mostly stock blue box Vandoren and Rico. That said, I also enjoy a Légère on my bass clarinet, it feels and sounds great, just like the D’Addario reed I have. Only issue is their strength being way off from what I first thought, but they fixed that by mail. I’ve one or two for sax over the years, but I never liked articulating on those. Feels fine on bass clarinet though.
