Currently learning some clave and cascara in 7 and trying to compose something using it, would love to get some recommendations for music in these time signatures!
I have the line 6 dl4 mk II, and I want to record a loop with no effects, then change to a delay sound that will NOT affect the loop, and play over the loop with delay. Problem is I let as soon as I switch to delay it puts delay on my loop which I don't want. How to make it only affect what I'm playing and not the loop?
We've all learnt the palm key d-d#-e-f-and possibly f# if you have they when we were starting out and just accepted it that way. However especially on tenor those were always extremely sharp for me, and I'd work hours on end to lower the note with voicing without it cracking. However recently Ive been playing with omitting some fingerings and its been working wonders. Even playing different fingerings based on dynamics. I haven't heard anyone talk about this, and saxophonists sure enjoy talking about fingerings so I also wanted to check if there is a reason this should be sound.
Palm D as usual because you have one key to open so not much choice, but then palm d# only with the d# key and without d as we are taught, but I use this only if playing softer, usually. Then E with the right hand top key alone, or together with palm d#, depending on my dynamic. Finally F I couldn't find any palm fingering with good intonation so I use front F and C key which is well known. For f sharp only plam f, together with right hand F,E and D# or a combination of those. Tell me what you think!
