Subject: [CB] Selmer Omega Contra Reeds FSMore on the Selmer Omega Eb Contra reeds:
I have several boxes each in #1 1/2, #2, and #2 1/2.
Selmer's chart included with the reeds recommends the #2 1/2 for HS* or B*
m/p's, #2 for S or C m/p's and #1 1/2 for C*, D, E, and HS**.Price per box of 12 is $40 US, that includes shipping within the U.S. or
Canada.I've also got some Selmer Omega bari reeds, and bass clarinet reeds - drop
me an e-mail for more details.

NotePad has in fact been available for almost a month. It's intended
mainly as a Finale reader, and Coda is encouraging Finale users to
distribute copies of NotePad along with scores, so that
non-Finale-owners can open and print Finale files. The inclusion of
limited editing functions is partly to allow users to customize
Finale files they receive, but also IMO as a demo to encourage
purchase of the full package.

menu bar is just for upgrading to any of the non-free versions. But
for my kids (12, 14, 15.5), it has everything they want for their
purposes: they can write scores, and listen to them. NotePad may not
be well-suited to producing professional output, but for free
software it isn't bad :-)Grant
