Thanks for sharing. Last week (due to your influence and a fine teacher), I went out and bought a Paul Mauriat PMB 300UL, I'm getting it next week, it's on order from a music store in Ontario Canada, I can't play well, I'm still a novice but I like the sound of the bari, I had an alto, bad experience, bad teachers, never liked it and put it away forever, but when I discovered you, I found a new love for the sax and music. I'm all in this time. Thank you. I'll send a photo when I can. Thanks for reading me.
Good luck Paddy. What a nice story. I also had a quite intermediate teacher, though I still play the sax, and now I got a fantastic teacher for my 9 years old son. I just need to get him to practice more.
Mr. Scott Paddock, I’m so glad I stumbled across your channel and really happy to hear that you’re from MD as I am too! I’ve been out of playing the alto sax for over 20 years and I’m looking to get back into playing it. I currently have a Yamaha YAS-23 I purchased new in 2000, tinkered with it here and there. I’ve been struggling to find a teacher and after checking out your videos and website I think we might be a good fit. I’ll be signing up for your monthly school and giving you a try. Stay safe and I look forward to relearning the saxophone with you.. Darryl
i got interested in the p.mauriat collection through you and plan on investing in one for my next sax upgrade :) great and informative video, thank you for sharing your setup.
I played a P Mauriat 67R with Cognac Laquer in a local store today. Love the finish and the Greeny blue keys. I was blown away at how good it sounded and I really want to get it. Made me realise how my own Sax is making a much harded job to play. I have a student model at present a Trevor James "The Horn, Revolution II".
Looking forward for your Tenor setup. I've got the Scott Paddock Tenor SYOS mouthpiece 6 opening, and it's great. My sax is a Henri Selmer Paris SA-80 2nd edition (silver plated).
Hi Scott, great video. Can you also share what accessories you take like in ear monitoring, effects modules, emergency repair kit, etc... Also, please also share your Tenor Sax setup. Cheers
Hi Scott what's up? i would like to ask you about which reverb pedal do you use for the wireless mic for gigs? and what pedal do you advise? Thanks best regards.
Hi, I don't use a reverb pedal on gigs or recordings. Most PA systems have reverb built in, so the sound guy adjusts it according the room. On my recordings, I add medium room digital reverb at 12%.
@@ScottPaddock thanks bro but usually not all djs know this in gigs most saxophonist they have their own Pedals to adjust their own sound especially in gigs like improvising with a dj not recordings or in bands this is what I mean just I want to know what kind or brand do you advice me to buy for saxophone?
@@banderassax Ahhh! If you are playing with a DJ, then you are in charge of your own sound, and using pedals is pretty common. I use the Digitech Polara in my pedalboard setup. It's pretty simple to get set up, and it sounds great. If you already use pedals you're good to go! If not, you'll need to watch some videos on how to get your saxophone in and out of the pedal before going that route.
Mostly I’d like to know about recording equipment and playing against a backing track then playing it all through the recording kit. I can’t work it out….
@@ScottPaddock I’m so bewildered and I just don’t know where to start or what to buy, or how to put it all together….that’s before I even learn how to use all the kit.
I've had that on my video list for a while. I'll bump it up and do play tests of several ligatures. For me, it makes a big difference. Especially going from a leather one to a metal one. I've seen other sax players do similar comparisons and they don't really feel much of a difference.
@@ScottPaddock, that would be interesting. I recall a video from Jay Metcalf saying they don’t make a difference. I have a lot of respect for both of you so it’s a little confusing. I use the same ligature as you but that’s because my reed doesn’t move. I haven’t noticed a difference in sound but I’m far from professional.

Hey Darryl welcome to the Sax School! Looking forward to having you on board.
i got interested in the p.mauriat collection through you and plan on investing in one for my next sax upgrade :)

Good stuff Scott. Very interesting.
I love the Legere American Cut.

Yeah, the right horn can make a world of difference. Those 67Rs are great looking horns!

Love to see your tenor set up
Look forward to your Tenor setup as I'm considering a Syos mouthpiece
Enjoyed your alto info. The tenor set up would be good to know as well. Thanks!
Love to hear your tenor set up!
Hi Scott, great video. Can you also share what accessories you take like in ear monitoring, effects modules, emergency repair kit, etc... Also, please also share your Tenor Sax setup. Cheers
Enjoyed the tenor and alot vids wish more people did this
I own the same exact saxophone but mine is unlacquered. It's an outstanding horn.
Def. interested in Tenor set-up too
Play the American cut Legere 2.0 myself and really pleased with them

@@ScottPaddock well👍 thanks bro for your advice :) I hope you can make a video about Pedals. Best regards
More tenor in general please :)
Do you have links for these purchases?
Tenor setup
What's your tenor set up?
Great video!!! What's your tenor setup?
A tenor setup video would be nice; so would a soprano video.
Mostly I’d like to know about recording equipment and playing against a backing track then playing it all through the recording kit. I can’t work it out….
Hey Bonny, I've had that on my list of videos FOREVER! The problem with it is there are a lot of moving parts.
@@ScottPaddock I’m so bewildered and I just don’t know where to start or what to buy, or how to put it all together….that’s before I even learn how to use all the kit.
Oh Man!!! Those Baggage Slammers were Hard ar Work!! Ouch!!
What’s your tenor set up
Just curious about what mouth-piece you were playing before switching to the Barkley Brazil Blue.
I played a custom Meyer 6 that was doctored by Bob Akerman. You can here me play it in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zcCNIiGgxQc/v-deo.html
@@ScottPaddock I remember now.
What software program do you use to edit your sax sound?
what's your tenor set up
More tenor please.
I find it very hard to believe a ligature has any influence on the sound.
I've had that on my video list for a while. I'll bump it up and do play tests of several ligatures. For me, it makes a big difference. Especially going from a leather one to a metal one. I've seen other sax players do similar comparisons and they don't really feel much of a difference.
