    much better sound quality...now to work on the nuances of playing with sax to mic distances and positioning...also can play gentler (dynamics) and let mic and board monitoring/phones do the work

    good start

    cheers

    I have never started a new post but I would be curious as to what members think as regards to waltz feel in modern music? The Tennessee Waltz is about the last popular song I can think of but maybe there are more. I think dancing in a three four feel can be very attractive at slower tempos because it can be lilting. Bluesette is pretty popular at jazz shows but I wonder why this feel has seemed to die out in pop music?

    Kate Bush’s Army Dreamers and Elvis Costello’s New Amsterdam spring to mind; both are from 1980. What the World Needs Now is Love, Que Sera Sera, Kiss From a Rose... the hits keep on coming.

    No mention of "All Blues?"

    (ps - How did this end up in the sax/mic/mixer thread?)

    Don't forget "Moon River" (which also is done in 4/4 in the movie).

    I found a kind of guitar sound.
    One in front of the amp and two behind.
    Not the best idea but I think it can sound.

    Behringer C-1 + Shure Beta 58 + BST UDC-20B

    the behringer is a unidirectional side address small diaghram electret condenser...(in a large diaghram shell)...it works best for sax, acoustic guitars, melodica....for an amp speaker mic, you might want to back it from the speaker a bit...as it adds some high end...or use the shure 58 for close micing

    as it's a side address capsule, try to keep it parallel to your sax's bell!

    have fun


    cheers

    yeah better...tho, i'd drop the rhythm track volume a bit...so you can really bring out all the nuances of the sax...more dynamics...without blowin too hard....tenor can go from high pitched squeal to rumble!!!


    cheers

    Yes indeed, I will try with something that lets more freedom in terms of dynamics.
    Maybe just a drumloop or my guitar, we are in a guitar forum, so my guitar.
