You may be referring to a double-reed instrument. An example would be an Oboe, or a bassoon, or an English horn. They are of the double-reed family because their reeds consist of two very thin pieces of cane, bound together by a film and twine. When played, the two pieces vibrate against each other, whereas a single-reed instrument, like the Clarinet, vibrates against the mouthpiece.
