The canyon reverb is set in a lovely spot. When you had that on with the delay it felt like I was floating into a lovely 1940s movie soundtrack set somewhere in California.
Yes! Had the same amazing feeling.
The chorus, harmonist and digital delay were awesome
My boss gave me a bari sax he hadn't used in years and I have a ton of effects pedals and I found your channel searching 'saxophone with guitar pedals'. Cecily, I appreciate this show and tell and saving me a good deal of expensive guesswork and frustration, I'm so excited to get my bari pedalboard going. Thank you so much!
Hi, Jasper! Thanks so much for watching and good luck with your bari pedalboard!
Cecily that was awesome. I’ve never heard a Sax player using pedals before. It sounds great! I hope more horn players get into it.
Cool. I have been playing for almost 60 years and never used any of those. The last one sounds like varitone from the 60s. Thanks for the demo. 🙏🎶
Hi! Guitar player and pedal addict here. A sax through the QTron! What a sound! I landed here from your posts on TPS group. My daughter started playing guitar as it was a class offered at her middle school. Then a new school was built and they didn’t offer guitar but she wanted to try band. Luckily they let her even though she missed 2 years. She is playing clarinet and she loves it. Which hurt a little that she liked it more than guitar but I’m happy for her. Now that I see she could run it through my pedalboard I’m so excited! I’ll check back here for more videos for sure! It was really interesting and refreshing to see a non stringed thing on the TPS group! Thx for posting!
Hi, Jason! Thanks so much for watching! I’m very happy for you that your daughter is still playing music. My father is a bass guitarist and he and I share a passion for music too. The good news is the music theory that she’ll pick up from band class will be super helpful. I’m going to be coming out with a series of short tutorials that will delve into some horn-specific pedalboard considerations soon. It’d be cool to get your daughter going with electronic sounds early. Thanks again for watching!!
I just got a pickup for clarinet (and a different one for bass clarinet and sax) from piezobarrel (Australia) and really love the sound. In fact this is what brought me to this sax pedal board video. Thanks.
Thanks for the idea. I like the reverb and delay effects.
That is absolutely one of the best uses of pedals I've ever seen. You just blew my mind that you don't even need an electric instrument... brilliant, of course you don't.
Also you rock, you are clearly one of the coolest people alive
Ok I am totally impressed by playing outside the box (insert pun here) Didn't know I could use pedal boxes for Sax. Love it!
I love hearing other less common instrumentalists using effects pedals! Just subbed. Look forward to your future videos! 🤙
The Harmonist, the Rainbow Machine, and the DD3 were my favorites! Very cool!
Always amazed to see the talent in the world - Human is amazing !
Wishing the best !
Enjoyed you demo of this. In the past I have used effects boxes that do all of that stuff. But I see where just stepping on a pedal for your desired effects is a simply way for the desired effect, Thanks Again, EM
The Data Corrupter sounds like my broken Casio MIDI horn - love it!
Hi - thanks for the video! I have a QTron - but it was hard to control live. I switched over to the SeaMoon funk, and have been loving it.
I was having the same problem. I use a smart gate pedal to tame it. Do you have any demo of you playing the sea moon?
Oh no - I have a Qtron on order 😮. The wonderful Wilton Felder played through FX years ago not sure what sort though .
I have a rig which I’m developing having played without any effects for years . Boss S1 , Zoia , Strymon Volante etc with a Brainz Left Brain expression.
Using my bass clarinet or Alto through them .
Incredible setup! Love the sounds and demonstration you did. This is the exact kind of saxaphonist I wish I could work with.
Great
I bought the Qtron after this video. what a sassy pedal!
Chorus and delay sound wonderful.
man the sax with the rainbow machine is just sublime.
Very,very nice performance,thank you Cecily ! Awesome !
Octave pedals sometimes struggle with the note tracking a bit especially on lower bass notes, so you almost have to play higher on purpose for it to work better but... You might consider a digitech whammy pedal they have pretty darn good tracking. 😃👍
Wow If I hadn't already wanted to learn the sax I sure do now!!!!
Intresting pedal set up 👍
Sounds great! If I was using Canyon for reverb...I would move it to almost last in the chain in front of looper. The canyon is amazing for the reverse setting with a tap too...that would be neat to hear on Sax next time perhaps.
I loved the Delay, Chorus seems fitting too. Id love to hear different Dirt Sounds on Sax. The Data Corrupter is kinda Dirt but that Pedal seems to sound exactly the same no matter what you put it through. Its Fun but to specific to be useful for a lot of things.
Woooowww amazing
The Qtron is by far the best to my ears but that’s a lot of fun boxes !
Thanks, Ben!
Wow Oh Wow!!
This is so great and helpful! Thanks for sharing this! It's super helpful. I'm getting into this for some gigs this week and have learned a lot from your videos.
That's awesome! Thank you! This means a lot coming from you!
Awesome!
Data corrupter and rainbow machine makes sax so FONKI!
Subscribed or more!
These were INSANE man!!!!!
I appreciate the no-nonsense info in these videos. That said, after messing around with various boxes with my flute, I've decided it's not worth the MONEY, more than the effort. If you have $2K to drop on a board of pedals (and, preferably, a roadie with pockets full of batteries), go for it. I'm going to try to follow the jazz giants who came before me, and try to make my own weird noises myself.
this is fantastic. love that tron.
Loved that qtron pedal .Looking forward to more from you 👍
The Canyon is so beautiful
Great demo! Thanks for sharing.
awesome superb demos .. thank you!!!
Really excellent video/demo, thank you for sharing!!!
Got a sub from me! I’m a piano player who been experimenting a lot with pedals so it’s cool to hear other traditional instruments in this realm!
Chorus is nice. Pretty subtle.
I've been using my Berg 100/1 since 87!
@2:05 absolute funk! Love it!
The Q-Tron sample made me think of The New Bohemians for some reason. This was a cool demo. I found you by mistake looking for a keyboard that synthesize the sound of a sax.
Hi, Charles! That's awesome! Thanks for watching!
¡Maravilla! garcias ;)
I watched several times, the rainbow machine is very interesting, I may try on my violin. Your sound is very nice, Subbed.
Three words....I love it.
Also, try a Tape Delay too. Absolute gold on sax!
Love this! I also post videos of me playing saxophone with pedals so glad to see someone else doing it!
Great video! I’m wanting to incorporate pedals with my sax and this was an amazing demonstration of which ones I’d like to use. Thank you for putting this together 🙌🏽
Thanks so much for watching, Deanna! I hope your pedal journey is going well!
im the 500th subber!😁😀🤟🤟🤟
Hi Cecile,
My boys and I play brass instruments and use Silent Brass mutes hooked up to guitar pedals and amps to mimic guitar and bass sounds. Will you be going a video for brass pedals like you mentioned?
Thanks
And your vid was great,
Thomas
Hi, Thomas! Thanks for checking out my video. Yes, I have been very focused the last couple of months on my recital, but now that that's over, I'm working on planning my "how to use pedals with wind instruments" series as we speak. Thanks for your interest!
EXCELLENT video!!
super cool! 🤯
I got lost the most part of the video just thinking of how beautiful you are!!!!!!!!!!! Regards from Panamá!!!!!!!!!!!!
So interesting 😊 )) Thank you for sharing this 🎶🎷
Thanks so much for checking it out!
Great video! I find this very helpful.
very interesting🎷❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
good to see people enjoy playing music with pedal effect now
maybe you can try Tap tempo on delay to get some experience 😉
I love hearing instruments with pedals that people aren’t used to seeing do so. I used to run my baritone uke and octave mandolin through my pedalboard it’s a lot of fun. What do you use the data corruptor for in actual performance? Haha it’s wild
That's so cool! I'd love to hear any recordings you have of those. I haven't been able to use it in an actual performance yet, but it would probably be during a cacophonous solo.
Ok Fausto papetti cool pedal board.Love the sax so jam on girl!
outstanding
So, the only thing I don't like is that there is no way to add in your real sound at after all the effects. I like using the Eventide Mixing Link for this, as it allows for this.
Also, a lot of these effects can be done using the HX Stomp......
This is schweeeet!
I love this.
Thanks, Katee!!!
ha ha I almost fall down from my chair .
Love it! x
O segundo ficou engraçado kkkkkkkk
Parabéns, toca muito bem 👏
Omg this is genius! Just what I need! Where to begin? What would you recommend to start off with?
Hi, Ananse! I'm planning my "how-to" video series as we speak. I would start with finding a preamp or some other way to connect your mic to your pedals. Cheers!
Thank you!! I look forward to your future videos. This is just what we need. I've searched everywhere on youtube for where to begin. Can you even break it down to beginners like me in terms of what mic, what amp and cables you would suggest? Thank you!
Love it 👍
I have never heard anything like that on a saxophone. I didn’t think it was possible. I have no doubt that foot pedals would work in a small ensemble with a limited amount of horns and at least four musicians in the rhythm section (drums, bass, piano and guitar). If not it will definitely make a saxophonist an enemy of the guitarist. lol
I liked the chorus pedals. I like the idea of playing one horn but sounding like I am playing more than one like the lead guitarist in rock bands do.
I have restarted playing saxophone after more than 20 years of inactivity. I play an Allora Chicago tenor saxophone. Which one of those effects pedals would be a good start?
Thank you.
Great demonstration.
🎷❤️
Hi Cecile, Thanks a million for this video! Can you tell me how you avoid feedback (Larsen)? I try to play through a multiFX and it is sooooo sensitive to Larsen! Any help and info welcome! Thank you from France 😉
Hello! Thanks for watching my video! Are you using a preamp or anything to affect the signal before it goes into your multiFX unit?
@@cecilyterhune Thanks for your reply. I don't use a preamp. Do you think a HF transmitter can provide some kind of control over feedback?
This so awesome
keep the phase 90 and left next to it.
Very interesting
The Data Corrupter scared my cat 😂
😂 That's hilarious! Poor kitty!
You should really try an Intramic! It's a game changer!
Yes, I've been watching some videos on those! I'd love to try one, but I don't have the money right now. What's your favorite thing about it?
So you're using the 1/4" out on the art tube pre? Does this impedance match well into the guitar pedals. I have a similar setup but I use my art tube pre for my vocal mic, then into guitar pedals. I always wondered if It would sound better if I was sure about the impedance matching? Thanks!
Interesting pedalboard, but how did you connect the balanced output from the preamp to the first pedal. You need a reamp device, otherwise your balanced cable does not match the input socket of the boss pedal.
Me conformo con diley😊😊
Never knew that Sax players would use effect Pedals 😮😅!
Besides all the effects one can hear that she's got a very nice tone in her playing.👌
Have you got any clips where you're using this in a band/gig setting? I find this stuff fun , but I struggle to figure out where I'd use it.
I will try to make some soon! It is always nice to hear things in context.
Fellow saxophonics addict here. Awesome board! Datacorrupter and rainbow machine always seemed freaky but no so versatile meaning using it maybe once in a whole set or so. Do those types of pedals stick long on your board? Also how's the overall noise level on larger systems ?
Hi, Justin! You're right; I don't often play out with those two pedals. I definitely use the rainbow machine more often than the data corrupter. I really like the rainbow machine in combination with some of my other effects to create other-worldly sounds. My preamp really helps with tempering the noise level with larger systems. I haven't had too much trouble. Also, since I've experimented with dirt pedals recently, I've introduced a 10-band eq pedal and a noise-gate into my chain at different times. They've really helped to give me lots of control and minimize unwanted sounds. What pedals do you use mostly?
Nice "Cissy Strut" riff on the QTron!
oh like that super mario effect🤣
Is there some way I can buy that all as a package deal ? Also have you ever played through a "head rush" system. I can't find any demo videos of a sax or woodwind instrument using the "Headrush looper" system.
New subscriber here. I love your videos. Quick question: when you demonstrated the canyon pedal, you said you had it on the reverb setting, but the canyon is only a delay and looper pedal with Feedback. It doesn’t really have ‘reverb’ does it? So how are you getting reverb out of it?
Thanks for watching! It actually does have a reverb setting on the lower left knob. It just says "verb."

Hi very nice explanation! Do you come out with a canon or jack to your presonus?
how is the canyon delay? I was thinking of buying it to use as a reverb and delay.
Hey, wonderfull.... how much Allan pedal effects?
Can you give advice how to reduce feeeback? I’m running a sm57 into the mini rolls mic pre amp into some pedals and into the amp
Great clip and extremely informative. One question, however. How do you keep bleed from other instruments from going through your wireless microphone and being affected by your pedals while on stage? I’ve been fooling around with an octave pedal, and every time the lead singer walks near me his voice would go through my microphone. Any tips?
You are so cool
Are you still doing pedal setups? Would love to chat more about how to start this. I've been playing forever and am starting to do some solo gigging and would like to learn more. Thanks!
Hi, one question...
Whats the best unit for converting that mic XLR (which needs phantom power with my clip-on anyway) into 1/4 inch jacks for guitar pedals? Bit of a stumbling block for me as i have all the pedals i need already..
Hi, Matt! I like to use a preamp like the ART Tube preamp or the Voco Loco to achieve this. Technically you could just use an adapter, but the signal is much healthier with a preamp. Also, preamps can give you the power you need for your mic. I have a video on this concept: th-cam.com/video/Fd4H1mUrNTg/w-d-xo.html
👍👍👍👍👍🧡🧡
I need your advice....i have a bunch of delay and reverb pedals....the dispatch master, afterneath, earthquaker devices transmisser. How do i hook up my saxophone to my audio interface to my pedals using my plug socket for multiple pedals into my laptop into logic pro x for recording? I would really appreciate it if you could help me out with that.
Hello! I'm sorry it has taken me a while to respond. Were you able to resolve this issue? I have a few other videos that might help you: th-cam.com/video/Fd4H1mUrNTg/w-d-xo.html

😯👍👍👏👏
Do I absolutely need a preamp to run my sax thru my pedals
my question is how to sound like a horn section by my self... any pedals you can reccomend.
