Xmas Guide 2007

Posted on December 9, 2007December 9, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Xmas Guide 2007

Last year, I didn’t do a Christmas guide. This year, I am going to. What holiday gift would you get your favorite saxophonist(s) this year. Here are some ideas. Under $100 Reeds. Pretty obvious. Should be fairly easy to figure out what they use as well. There will be dead ones in the trash, and…

Band In A Box 2008 Released

Posted on December 4, 2007December 5, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Band In A Box 2008 Released

It is out, the latest version of Band in a Box. I took some guesses at what might be new in this version, and sadly, it looks like only two were put in. And that one was kind of a jest suggestion on my part. From PG Music.Com RealTracks. With the previous release of Band-in-a-Box,…

Hardcopy Of The II-V Patterns

Posted on December 3, 2007 By ericdano 5 Comments on Hardcopy Of The II-V Patterns

The II-V patterns are one of the most downloaded things here. I’m currently working on another revision of them, which would probably make it 400+ pages. That is a LOT to print out. I’m considering making them available to people via Lulu.com for like a $1 over what it costs to print them. So, if…

M-Audio BX8a Studio Reference Monitors

Posted on December 1, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on M-Audio BX8a Studio Reference Monitors

Part of the stuff I won in the SOS Competition were a pair of M-Audio BX8a Studio Reference Monitors. They came the other day, and they are an amazing set of speakers. Comparing them to the KRKv4 isn’t fair. They are in a far higher class. I really liked the KRKs, but these really are…

Teaching “Alternate” Fingerings

Posted on November 14, 2007December 3, 2007 By ericdano 6 Comments on Teaching “Alternate” Fingerings

So, there is this guy who goes into local schools. He’s a “sax expert” or whatever. He also seems to be talking up a bunch of smack as well (directed towards your’s truly). Anyhow, he is telling all the kids to play middle D with the side palm D open. Huh? The reason, “The tone…

Favorite Brecker EWI Video

Posted on October 25, 2007November 25, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Favorite Brecker EWI Video

Pretty much anything Michael Brecker did was awe inspiring. I remember back in the day seeing the Michael Brecker band when I was in High School. I had no clue who he was. I was a newbie, or noob at the whole saxophone thing. I basically went to the concert to see Spyro Gyra. Anyhow,…

Oboe Mouthpiece?!?!?

Posted on October 19, 2007 By ericdano 1 Comment on Oboe Mouthpiece?!?!?

I almost won this item on ebay. A Chedeville Oboe Mouthpiece. Wow. It got to pricey for me. Plus I just had to shell out a lot of money to the IRS. 🙁 Interesting discussion about it here. Seems it isn’t so great. Looks kind of cool though. Probably would help out some poor doubler…

Posted on October 12, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Shurenotes

I mentioned before that I get this email letter thing from Shure every now and then. Well, the latest issue is out, and it gives some stereo micing techniques tips. There is also an archive of all the previous ones. Great, free information.

Finale Users Defecting To Sibelius

Posted on October 10, 2007October 13, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Finale Users Defecting To Sibelius

There has been a LOT of discussion on the Finale List (which is NOT managed by the company) about the disappointment with Finale 2008. I decided to pass on 2008. To stir things up, Sibelius is offering a 50% off trade-up program. It is sad to see so many veterans of Finale, people who have…

The Sordid Tale Of Guardala

Posted on September 7, 2007September 26, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on The Sordid Tale Of Guardala

It is sad that one of the great makers of mouthpieces and horns has messed up everything. From a Newsday Article: “David Guardala is sort of the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of the saxophone world, according to federal prosecutors and some of those he is accused of swindling. As of yesterday, Guardala was in…

Vade-Mecum of The Oboist

Posted on September 2, 2007September 26, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Vade-Mecum of The Oboist

There are a number of books out there that are for Oboe that have been adapted for Saxophone. Ferling’s, and Rossari’s books would be two examples. Another great book to check out is “Vade-Mecum of The Oboist” by Albert J. Andraud. The 200 page, over sized book contains 230 selected studies (some from Ferling) and…

Roland KC 550

Posted on September 2, 2007December 5, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Roland KC 550

I recently bought a Roland KC 550. It is a keyboard amp, but you can use it for many other things. I bought it for some gigs this summer. It has an XLR microphone input, plus 3 additional inputs. Easily enough to share with a keyboard player, your EWI and your Sax mic. We touched…

Making Reeds

Posted on September 2, 2007September 26, 2007 By ericdano No Comments on Making Reeds

Ok, are you sitting. Yes? Ok. I play oboe. Take a deep breath It’s not as bad as everyone says. In fact, it is a beautiful instrument, and great classical works composed for it. The only issue I have with playing Oboe is reeds. Right now, I’m using reeds made by the Alan Double Reed…
