After many years,the amount of useful information scattered over the Internet continues to amaze me. Yesterday it was the turn of this great web site,BestSaxophoneWebsiteEver,which offers a 24-page booklet in PDF format,filled with tips that all sax players can benefit from. You can find guidance on purchasing a used sax,advice on keeping your horn clean and perfectly working,tips on practicing,and more. My favorite ones are the reccomendations on how to get the best from a microphone when recording at home. The booklet is actually only an excerpt of what you can find on this website by saxophinist Doron Orenstein,where good tips abound. I have bookmarked the following pages: 6 crucial facts about saxophone reeds 11 tips for improving your altissimo 7 tips to tell how much mouthpiece to take in (partly based on this article by Pete Thomas) 8 tips for an open throat and big sound Flatter tounguing –The sexy sax secret Happy practicing! For years I have used cigarette paper to dry the pads of my saxophones after playing,and I know I am in good company. I suspect that they sell more cigarette paper to woodwind players than to actual smokers. It’s hard to change habits,but I wanted to give these pad dryers a try,and the overal impression is positive. They can absorbe humidity at least as much as paper and you don’t have to be careful about not putting the glued portion of the paper in contact with pads. Their maker –BG in this specific case –claim that they last for one year,but I haven’t tested them for that long. The only limit is:if you are used to leave cigarette paper under keys –most likely,the G# and low C# keys –you can’t use dryers for that,unless you buy them in quantity (and I suspect that in that case they would last much less than one year). For now I decided to continue to use both:the dryer to absorb most saliva and humnidity and cigarette paper left under the keys to prevent pads from sticking. I admit it:I love pad savers,because they are pretty,colorful and –supposedly –useful. Only recently I discovered that they can be a bit dangerous,thanks to my friend Domenico Bartolomeo,who repairs saxophones for living and for passion. The fact is,pad savers should never,ever be left inside the horn,for several reasons. First,they keep humidity and therefore the prevent your pads from getting dry,which in turn make their life shorter. Second,they tend to leave dust inside the saxophone. Third,over time they tend to lose naps (hairs),which might prevent the pads from closing perfectly. I learned this lesson the hard way. You can use a pad saver to clean the interior of your saxophone,of course. Just don’t leave them inside it. Used in this manner,I find pad savers especially useful with straight sopranos,whereas I prefer cleaning my alto by passing a cleaning cloth through the horn. BTW,for the same reason I avoid –if possible,of course –to close the case of your sax immediately after practicing. I typically leave the case open for a few hours to let the humidity to go away,if necessary with a cloth over (not inside!) the saxophone to protect it from dust.

Tar éis blianta fada, leanann an méid eolais úsáideach scaipthe thar an Idirlíon chun amaze dom. Inné bhí sé an cas ar an suíomh gréasáin mór, BestSaxophoneWebsiteEver , a thairgeann leabhrán 24-leathanach i bhformáid PDF, líonadh le leideanna gur féidir le gach imreoirí sax leas a bhaint as. Is féidir leat teacht ar treoir ar a cheannach sax úsáidtear, comhairle ar a choinneáil do adharc glan agus breá ag obair, leideanna maidir le cleachtadh, agus níos mó. Tá mo cinn is fearr leat na moltaí agus thugadar maidir le conas a fháil is fearr ó micreafón nuair a taifeadadh sa bhaile. Tá an leabhrán i ndáiríre ach sliocht ar cad is féidir leat a fháil ar an suíomh gréasáin ag saxophinist Doron Orenstein , i gcás ina abound leideanna maith. Tá mé bookmarked na leathanaigh seo a leanas: 6 fíricí ríthábhachtach faoi giolcacha saxophone 11 leideanna chun feabhas a chur ar do altissimo 7 leideanna a insint cé mhéad mouthpiece a ghlacadh i (go páirteach bunaithe ar an Airteagal seo ag Pete Thomas) 8 leideanna do scornach oscailte agus fuaime mór Flatter tounguing -An rún sax sexy Shona cleachtadh! Ar feadh na mblianta tá mé úsáid as páipéar toitín a thriomú an pads de mo saxophones tar éis imirt, agus tá a fhios agam Tá mé i gcuideachta maith. Doigh liom go dhíol siad toitínpháipéar níos mó imreoirí gaothuirlisí adhmaid ná chun daoine a chaitheann tobac iarbhír. Tá sé deacair a nósanna a athrú, ach bhí mé a thabhairt ar na dryers ceap iarracht, agus is é an tuiscint overal dearfach. Is féidir leo absorbe taise a laghad an oiread agus is páipéar agus ní gá duit a bheith cúramach faoi gan a chur ar an chuid greamaithe den pháipéar i dteagmháil le pads. A n-déantóir - BG sa chás ar leith -claim go deireanach siad ar feadh bliana, ach nach bhfuil mé tástáil leo as sin i bhfad. Is é an teorainn amháin: má tá tú úsáid toitínpháipéar a fhágáil faoi eochracha -most dócha, na heochracha íseal C # G # agus go mbeadh tú nach féidir a úsáid triomadóirí le sin, ach amháin má cheannaíonn tú iad i gcainníocht (agus doigh liom go sa chás sin iad Bheadh go deireanach i bhfad níos lú ná bliain amháin). Chun anois chinn mé ar aghaidh ag úsáid an dá: an triomadóir a ionsú an chuid is mó seile agus humnidity agus toitínpháipéar d'fhág faoi na heochracha chun pads chosc ó sticking. Ligean isteach mé é: Is breá liom Savers ceap, mar go bhfuil siad go leor, ildaite agus -supposedly -useful. Ach le déanaí fuair mé amach gur féidir leo a bheith beagán contúirteacha, a bhuíochas sin do mo chara Domenico Bartolomeo , a saxophones deisiúcháin chun cónaithe agus chun paisean. Is é fírinne, ba chóir Savers ceap riamh, a fhágáil riamh taobh istigh den adharc, ar chúiseanna éagsúla. Gcéad dul síos, a choimeád siad taise agus dá bhrí sin cosc a chur ar an do pads ó fháil tirim, ina dhiaidh sin a dhéanamh ar a saol níos giorra. Dara, claonadh a bhíonn siad deannaigh a fhágáil taobh istigh den sacsafón. Sa tríú háit, le himeacht ama claonadh a bhíonn siad chun NAPS (ribí), a d'fhéadfadh a chuireann cosc ar an pads ó deiridh breá chailleadh. D'fhoghlaim mé an ceacht ar an mbealach crua. Is féidir leat úsáid a bhaint ar scáileáin eochaircheap a ghlanadh an taobh istigh de do saxophone, ar ndóigh. Ní Just a dhéanamh iad a fhágáil taobh istigh air. A úsáidtear ar an mbealach seo, a aimsiú mé Savers ceap úsáideach go háirithe le sopranos díreach, ach is fearr liom a ghlanadh mo Alto ag rith le éadach ghlanadh tríd an adharc. BTW, ar an gcúis chéanna a sheachaint mé -má is féidir, ar ndóigh -le gcás do sax dhúnadh díreach tar éis cleachtadh. Fágaim ghnáth an cás ar oscailt ar feadh cúpla uair an chloig a ligean ar an taise chun dul amach, más gá le éadach thar (nach taobh istigh!) An sacsafón chun é a chosaint ó deannaigh.
