I work at Sweetwater! And a sax player as well! Those rooms are super fun to use, I use my tenor in there a lot. Huge fan as well!
Thanks Jacob!
@@bettersax can you do a Imelod saxophone cleaning kit.
I just bought a new tenor saxophone from Sweetwater!! Sweetwater is amazing!!
Cool. For the medium I imagine standing on a stage in an empty airplane hanger. Medium was enough, large seemed a bit over the top but would be fun to experience.
This is really cool. I live here is Fort Wayne, and go to Sweetwater every week for my saxophone lesson. I have been taking lessons there for the past three and a half years. So far it has been a really fun experience. I had an opportunity to check out the reverb room before Christmas. I was looking at a Yamaha Pro Soprano saxophone that they had on display and I was asking questions about the horn. The salesman ask me if I wanted to try to play the Soprano. He set me up with a reed and a legature and let me try out the Soprano sax in the reverb room. Sweetwater is a super cool place to visit.
Sounds somewhat like some of the cruise ship areas that SirValorSax used to try out different set ups. I love it. Can't wait to get up there. I am already discussing with Drake a specific sound that I am currently chasing, and he is amazingly knowledgeable and skilled. So happy to be a Sweetwater customer for several years, and now it has a band and orchestra department.
I have been there and played in the demo rooms too. Such an incredible store and experience! Sweetwater is TOP NOTCH! I am a novice player so hearing my own "echo" literally moved me to tears. It was powerful for this old gal just getting back into playing again after 30 years! Luckily my boyfriend lives in Fort Wayne so we visit Sweetwater often
The high school I went to had a practice room with a system similar to this, it was really nice to play into something that wasn't dead space.
I’ve got a few rooms like this at my school, definitely my preferred practice room
Man I’ve got to get to Sweetwater when I’m looking for a Tenor.
I would have loved to have bumped into you there! It's kind of dangerous living so close to SweetWater FYI
He better sax, you have such a lovely warm tone, and your playing is very melodic. Sounds like music not maths. Thank you so much for sharing all of this (and yes the reverbs are nice)
Wow! So cool!
Wow thats amazing. 😊
WOW. Cool.
Just for fun, they could add more simulations, something such smal/medium/large cave, plate, forest (surrounded by trees), etc.
Hi Jay, love your product reviews and would love to see a review of the Yamaha YDS-150!
that's so cool
Man, that is awesome
I love these rooms, I come a bunch and play all the saxes, (not really)
I wish all of the larger music stores would integrate this technology. Incredible
I live an hour away. I'm going to have to make another trip.
Great VIDEO!!!
We have these reverb simulators in my high school practice rooms.
Lucky! I would love those in mine.,
Great video!
I use a pedal with a little bit of hall in the case that the acoustic of the place are dry or inexistent. But i suppose this speciall chamber sounds far better.
Thanks and congrats Jay!
Need a large room solution, miss my lovely places under the bridge in Zurich at he lake and munich below Maximilianeum
Awesome
"It is top secret, of course"; why? Anyway here is my secret:
I adapted my rehearsal room (3x4 m) to create an acoustically similar environment. In the heavily damped room I mounted small active speakers in the 4 corners close to the ceiling. In the middle of the ceiling is an omni directional microphone connected via a microphone amplifier to the input of a Yahama DSP1, a digital sound processor. The four speakers are connected to the outputs of the sound processor. The DSP1 is still for sale on ebay but there are also successors. With this sound processor it is possible to choose from many acoustical simulated rooms; several halls, chamber, jazz club, stadium etc, much more than just small, medium and large. Moreover a lot of parameters can be altered e.g. early reflections, liveness, initial delay….. In this way it is possible to create a very satisfying natural sounding acoustical environment. From intimate to spacious and everything in between.
Awesome!
sounds just like my living after I removed all of the carpet. Great video as always
Back home in Indiana, home of Sweetwater, lol
I'd love to see you do a video on the Hammond Condor!! Do you have one?? Or a Gibson Maestro
Awesome great stores saxophones 🎷 so sound. So audio
super cool Jay...
Appropriate choice of tune to play in that room! 🤣
Welcome to the Hoosier State! Sweetwater is just a few miles from my house
Nice choice of tune to play, BTW 😜
Why did the audio suddenly switch to MONO at 4:08?
They have rooms like these at the university of Dayton!
Awesome. You can have a similar, maybe not the same, effect at home with the Presonus revelator io 24 using headphones.
Super cool, large room should be renamed to "Kenny's Room" LOL
Hey can you please do the Imelod saxophone cleaning kit please I need help with it
Bro I live here
I keep wondering if, in 20 years, we're going to look back at Fort Wayne as the starting point for a huge prog rock or jazz scene, based on all the talented musicians working day jobs at Sweetwater and talking to each other about music all day long (and acquiring pro gear at employee discount levels while they're at it)!
Did you see the candy room?
I did
How did Sweetwater get in Indiana? A step up from my late 1970s days in Terre Haute!
founded in Fort Wayne in 1979
Omg im early! Hi Better sax. You should make a better sax tenor, I would totally buy it.
I would too, if it’s in my price range
@@jeriah1945 yeah. The alto is affordable too
@@thatboredgamer2269 mhm, I play a Yamaha 62S alto, but am looking to get a Jean Paul tenor due to the price
@@jeriah1945 hmm I heard the Jean paul is good. I really want to get a tenor but i am a teen so I can’t get a job for a year. I’m trying an Etsy shop and birthday money though.
Maybe I should call the Sweetwater recruiter back? 🤔
