There are pros and cons for both cane and synthetic clarinet reeds. Cane reeds generally provide a warmer sound, the response is even through all registers and the player has a lot of control over the sound. But since cane reeds are made of plant materials, each reed is unique and a box of reeds might provide a few great ones and a few not-so-great ones. Synthetic reeds are consistent, generally last much longer than a cane reed and do not react to temperature and humidity. However, some clarinet players may think that synthetic reeds offer less control over their sound. Our advice? Try out many different types and brands of clarinet reeds and use what you think makes you sound best!
