Three interchangeable pressure plates to subtly modify your sound. An easy-fit Velcro system makes changing the plates easy while contributing to the flexibility of the entire ligature. Plate 1 : The reed vibrates in total freedom, producing a very flexible sound. Greater ease of expression. Plate 2 : A more compact, centred sonority, smooth even sound and extraordinary blowing ease. Plate 3 : A rich, colourful sonority which produces great resonance. Pressure along the fibre of the reed facilitates an unbelievable blowing ease. Incredible ease of articulation.
