Vandoren Mix Cards are a great option for players that want to find their favorite reed without buying an entire box of each series. The Bb Clarinet Mix Card includes one V12, one 56 rue Lepic, and two V21 Series reeds.

Vandoren V12 reeds are manufactured from cane tubes with the same diameter as cane used for alto saxophone reeds. As a result, they have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a slightly thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that more of the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound. The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases the longevity of the reed. The introduction of the 3.5+ strength allows a smaller and more specific gradation, resulting in reeds that are more consistent within the same strength. Resulting in reeds that are more consistent within the same strength. Comparing strengths, a V12 strength 4 reed is almost equal to Traditional strength 3.5 reed.

Designed from thicker cane with a heel taper very similar to German-style reeds, the Vandoren 56 rue Lepic emits a rich, centered, and extremely pure sound while providing maximum stability and quick response in all registers. Strength gradations are smaller and more specific, resulting in reeds that are very consistent.

The Vandoren V21 clarinet reed, named after the century of its introduction, provides a new tonal option for clarinetists seeking to personalize their sound. The V21 reed is a thick-cut, American-cut reed that combines the conical shape of a 56 rue Lepic reed with a V12 profile. This unique combination makes all registers of the clarinet more accessible with warmth and a depth of sound. It will allow you to play with amazing presence and immediate response. The V21 is the clarinetist's top choice for performances that require large interval leaps with an even, rich tone.
