Description

D'Addario VENN Generation 2: an advanced synthetic reed constructed of polymer fibers, resin, and natural cane elements. Designed to give players the benefits of synthetic reeds without compromising on the sound and playability of cane reeds. Developed by the industry’s most revered engineers, VENN signals a whole new era in woodwinds innovation: combining the stability and longevity of a synthetic reed with the sound and feel of natural cane. To mimic the organic structure of cane, we reverse-engineered cane itself, layering different strengths of polymer fibers with resin and natural reed elements to make up the reed blank. The result? VENN outlasts and outperforms anything else like it – all while sounding and playing like your favorite cane reed.

  • Too stiff for my embouchure
Size: Strength 2.0
I heard a podcaster say that he prefers schism reed over Legere reeds, but I prefer Legere reeds over this Venn. If they produced a lower strength reed, I’ll be willing to try it.

  • D'addario synthetic reed
Size: Strength 2.0
New product. The strength comparison chart that's published is not accurate. These are much harder. If you try them, size down.

  • I expected more from D’Addario.
Size: Strength 2.5
This reed is expensive and the expectation would be for a great playing experience. Sorry, it misses the mark. It is a great looking synthetic reed but plays thin and somewhat “chirpy” for me in the upper register. I’ve been using Legere for at least 6 years and the VENN just doesn’t measure up in comparison, especially when costing more! ... show more

  • Don't bother buying these Plastic Reeds.
Size: Strength 2.5
The Reed is just what I thought it would be, Just another Plastic Reed, I looked all over the Box and Paperwork and cannot find a G2 on anything. So I think you Cheated by sending me the G1 version. But anyway If this is Version G2, it not worth the Money. I'll stick with real Reeds thank you.

  • Nice clean sound - I will continue experimenting with this
Size: Strength 3.0
This has a nice clean sound. I typically use a 2.5, but I have wanted to try this synthetic at 3.0. I was skeptical. It has a somewhat glossy look to it, which still made wonder if it would work fine. I also didn't know if it needed to be softened by premoistening it. I have discovered that it doesn't. I like the way it plays. I am just restarting playing my Saxaphone regularly. I notice that the synthetic reed is stiffer than my cane reed. But as I said I am used to playing with a 2.5. Playing with this 3.0 synthetic means I have to pay more attention to my diaphragm technique and posture. I think this is worth continuing with the experiment of playing with this synthetic reed. ... show more
