Sounds great, Ian. Merry Christmas to you. Your playing is a nice gift. George

I didn't like the scales, but the actual "jam" part sounds great.

This is the sort of channel I'd have if I had more of a microphone addiction. Luckily I sought help with the help of the IRS (who is now taking most of my money every year :/ )

What kind of mouthpiece is it?

LOVE YOUR SOUND!

I also have a Yamaha tenor saxophone

When the m160 beyerdynamic mic video?

I don't know, I use Motu M4 with my TLM 102 and I record clarinet. No idea if a preamp would be better.

Very interesting take on a classic. All the more impressive that you still manage to insert a bit of feeling since you don't celebrate Christmas yerself. Microphone sounds neat, though! I see that one can still buy a Shure SM86 new. That one is described as a robust condensermicrophone perfect for vocal use. Could it be the successor to the SM85?

Nice chords!!

Have a merry Christmas 🎅

Did you switch in the high pass filter? The mic sounds quite thin/ not a lot of the body I’m used to from a Tenor

I recommend trying an EV RE20 on Saxophone 😊

Nice mic that

21s are great like

Canny

Selmer the best !

Love it! Where are Heftrig mouthpieces available?

My mate has over a 100 pair of speakers. He reckons he should see somebody…….😅

Is it just me, or does the tone with the straight neck sound more out of control (wobbly) and less focused than with the standard neck? With more of a free air flow (with straight neck), there is less resistance and therefore less opportunity to center or focus or control the sound. What say you?

Sweettttt

Ya definitely digging ya mp mate Coolllllll

❤ Coolio. Niceeee

I've had my SA80 for about 20 years. Same vintage as yours. Every single time I try a modern Selmer that makes me think that I may want to "upgrade," I keep finding more reasons to love my horn. Trying to find any decent Selmer tenor under the 2k USD mark has also become pretty difficult in recent years. So, if it ain't broke, I ain't taking out a new mortgage for a horn.

Definitely coolllllll. I think for soprano the pai thing works sweettttt.

Never destroy a vintage instrument

I have one from 1964, it's great!

what was the depth of the bridge at the extreme point after the reface?

Definitely warmer. Really nice core

Sweetttt. Great having a mate so close for your mp work 👍

Who made the "Beast" for you ,out of interest.

Coolllll

Problem with chinese staff in reseling value. Coz when you buying 58 or 2020 you know that you can give your money back by reseling it. Also, "standart" mics are known over the world, and enginers at studios or venues know how to work with them.

Yeah, I have to come to realize that some of these cheap chinese microphones ain't half bad. Takstar is another good brand. I bought the Takstar Tak-55 when I needed a microphone that would give me a decent sound on some tutorial videos I had to make in my job. It sounds great on my voice though I don't actually have a saxophone to try it out on.

not even close to my 64 selmer MKVI. i own the eastern music and a vintage selmer mkvi tenors. my mkvi is more open and easier to play. there's a huge ahh factor missing from the eastern music copy. i do use a an eastern music 45 dollar jody jazz copy metal mp and it is amazing.

I wonder what the difference is between this microphone and the beta version of the same microphone, apart from looks. The beta microphone costs almost 3x the price of this.

Belo som 🎉🇧🇷

I'm getting pretty deaf and have crappy speakers on my PC, but the mark VI sounded fuller across the harmonics and stronger in the high range. The Groger has a nice bottom end though. Love your tone.

Try to have the mic in the frame so we know how far and in what possition it was placed

Hi mate this might be a silly question but are you able to plug this mic directly into the XLR inputs on say a Zoom recorder, or would it have to be via a cable?

Hi Ian, I was considering yo buy this mic for talking head videos, I'm curious how is the self noise? Did you notice that it was high or was it acceptable?

man, this this mic sounds wonderfully natural!.........

What is your favorite less expensive mic?

Good playing but guy, where did you get that saxophone made and how much?.......I am thinking about buy a decent Chinese tenor that Isa little better than the eastern music one that I have!👊🏾😡

Definitely a niceeee mic. Full range coollllll

I really liked the sound of the X1-T. It must have been discontinued quite recently, because when I wondered what it went for nowadays I happened upon a Norwegian music web shop that said they still had it in stock..

great playing!........what saxophone is this? i bought one of those eastern music saxophones that you reviewed! what do think of them after playing it for a while?

this is truly beautiful

BTW what audio interface u used here? i would say also plays a big role

came for the mic test. didn't expect getting grade A jazz jam. very impressive. BTW not all pencil mics are the same. you got a good one. 22mm gold capsule. pretty big. a lot of voc mics have smaller capsules. t05 has a pesky 9 db bump on 13khz. according to manual. EQ should level that out. also try MXL V67N mic. fuller and more consistent sound
