This video is amazing man

I really love to listen to your music and reading about your search, approach and philosophy behind it. Thank you!

Who produced the record?

Hi Jason, thank you so much for all the information! I'm starting to tap into the pedals world and having a lot of fun trying things out. I'm currently using a BOSS VE-20 as mainly a harmonizer due to the fact that I'm using a condenser mic that needs phantom power. I saw that you're using an audio technica power module. Would that be the same? I'm afraid of creating a pedal chain without figuring this out first (can't seem to find enough info online). Do you know how can I run a chain with a condenser? should I run all the pedals before and use the boss ve-20 at the end to send my mic signal out? Sorry if it's a beginner question. Thanks again!

Thanks for sharing!

Great videos, thank you! Just ordered a Voco-Loco to use my reverb/delay guitar pedals. What clip on mic are you using? Have you tried different mics for recording into a DAW? What brand/model horns are you playing? Awesome sounds!

Did you ever look at the Boss Rc-202 or RC-505? They have line level inputs and a mic input. The mic input can be either phantom powered or not powered. There are tons of effects that you can control via midi. Plus they have multiple tracks (2 on the 202 and 5 on the 505) that you can use for recording or playing your backing tracks. Plus you can overdub on a track. Not sure if the mark 1 DL4 has overdub... The mark 2 does. The RC-202 or RC-505 could literally replace most, if not all of your effects as well as your daw. You can use a midi foot controller with them as well. Even if you don't replace your big setup with one, you could have one that you take to smaller gigs with your foot controller, sax and a single speaker PA. You could literally put the RC-202 in a backpack with your foot controller. Then you would just have your sax, a backpack and a small speaker that you could take into a gig in one trip from a tiny car. (No, I don't work for Boss lol).

Just found you today (Oct 30, 2023), and to be honest, wasn't actively looking, but should have been looking for a genre that gets entirely too little attention. Really superb use of electronics in music specifically with saxophone. Wonderful song and playing, and I will poke around on your channel after writing this to you. Electric tenor sax has been a passion for me (as a practitioner) since 1987 (started playing tenor in 1978 at 13 years old, after playing piano from age 6), when I obtained as an unexpected but fortuitous barter that delivered an Electro-Harmonix Polyphase (phase shifter/envelope follower), which still works and I still own. (I had recently started begun to uncover the exposure I'd had already to Mike Brecker and was just about to find Eddie Harris, Tom Scott, and Van der Graaf Generator (amongst others).) I leave on a slow and deep chorus (Amdek) constantly and have a Roland octaver pedal that I kick on and off. I sometimes use a Yamaha SPX-90II, but that is a big hunk to haul around. The band isn't into the one-man4-horn-section playing intervals. I use a Samson C02 with a pre-amp at the moment, but my favorite mic was the Sennheiser 421, which is long gone. Can't wait to hear your experiments, because this one was so enjoyable that I am going to find out about your other contributions to art. I have just picked the horn up again after several years off as a band found me when I wasn't looking. So far, so good. They are exceptional players and people. In due time, I will share my own crimes against art. It is a pleasure to wander across the paths of others with comparable options, ideas, and influences. Rock on!

I just found your video on yt. Amazing setup and sounds man!! I used a Ditto X4 looper-pedal ( the bigger one) and had 3 of them , 2 of them for the other musicians. You can Connect them just using a long midi-cable. Then all 3 can be used in sync and tap the master in tempo. It helps to make empty loops of a certain length.

You need some pedalboard junction/interface boxes. It’s not good practice to plug in/out of your pedals every night. Eventually one of your 1/4 jacks will fail, it’s better for it to fail on the interface side. When it happens you can just plug into the pedals for the night. Y’all sound great!!!!!

great! im setting up a pedalboard.. cant decide between the hedra and the whammy for sax. is it possible to control the hedra with the expression pedal from the fcb? wouldnt the hedra become like the whammy? many thx

Sax player here, tryna figure out a pedalboard setup. Not a lot of these vidz out there. Thanks for sharing with us!

Very nice smooth jazz with an unusual sounding sax! Is the sax plugged into guitar effects boards?

Thank you for this. It is nice to see another saxophonist that is aware of and uses the electronic technologies that have propelled the guitar to legendary status.

Thanks for this nice video! Freaking FX in usage, nice! I'm a trumpetist, also using the voco loco and the same 1 spot power supply. My question to you is just: How do you power your voco loco? I'm currently using it's standard power supply coming with it, but the extra cord really stresses my nerves. I really want to connect the voco loco to my power supply. Yeah, but it runs on 15VDC... How do you use it? Please help ;) Cheers & Rock on! Albo

Thank you very much!!!

Enjoyed listening to your music and the explanation. Got a link to your music? How do you find Meris pedals to edit?

Hi Jason, I was wandering how you setup the DECAY on your Noise supressor? Thanks in advance! :D

Excellent! Very impressive!

Thanks for this video! I have a Voco Loco. What voltage are you running through it since the power supply that comes with it is 15 volts?

Crazy man! Respect!! I m at the Start of the Journey and still have to understand how can i connect my condenser mic to pedals and than to audio interface, can i just use a preamp? can you or someone help me please ?

Wow. Sounds incredible! Thanks for sharing

Very impressed... my only gripe... the zip ties are killing me! Lol VELCRO BABY! Heavy duty!

Thanks for making these videos man!! So I just got the Meris Enzo, I've playing around with putting my tenor sax through it, but I'm having some issues with getting it to sound good, it seems like the tracking for the synth is pretty dirty and doesn't work very well. Just using the filter env sounds cool, but I'd love to get a nice saw synth sound out of this pedal, do you have any advice? Any settings I should try playing with? Or some way to prepare my sax signal before putting it into the Enzo? I've been using a TC Helicon Harmony M for my pre-amp and keeping it dry while testing this. Thanks again man, I'm loving the badass sounds you are getting out of your setup, lol now I want to buy a Hedra too 🤦‍♂️

I'm thinking I may get a VE-20 fx pedal for the reverb,multiharmony etc. This doesnt' have the wah pedal feature. Would you think that an envelope filter coould be used for the wah pedal?

Should just get a digital mixer, then you could mix your whole group, and all these pedal inputs. Plus you can compress everything and mix it…..from like an iPad,….

Seems like you could do all this with like one hx stomp

What brand of pedal boards are you using? Great sounds

Always love effects on the sax 👍

You have a good selection of pedals for a small board.

I have been using the TC Helicon Voiceplay Live . Not really happy with it.I find it does not sound the harmony very well while playing through my wireless Shure sax mic. into my Guitar amp . I do not have a PA at home so I cannot seem to get enough volume to hear the harmony. very well. I don't use a lot of effects on my sax and just want a good harmonizer to play horn lines when I am the only horn in the band.I liked the sound of the harmony on your Hedra Meris pedal.Would that be a better choice then getting the Digitech Whammy? Thanks!

I uploaded this video in May, seems like a long time ago. I'm editing a new video right now. It will be an updated version of my pedalboard. It's coming soon!

I use distortion, overdrive and clean sounds on a les Paul as I play in a blues band, I used to use. Delay in another project, I would use it as an instrument in its self to mutate the sounds, recently I have experimented with reverb for first time in 35 years, I still prefer none in nearly all scenarios though, using none makes the sound punchier and leaves spaces completely empty / quiet, I had a sax for six months, a year ago too though, I miss it so much at the time I had a crappy keyboard set up too, I want to get back to that way of practicing those different things and singing too even, it was a n approach I was developing.. A good idea will work on all those instruments I think.. Guitar almost limits me because I know it too well?

As a guitarist who plays a little sax, this is crazy lol, good job man.

Jason your Video is great and thoughtfully explained. I play alto semi pro /Advanced intermediate . I use a Boss vocal V-20 to good effect, octaves /choirs/ 3rd 5ths etc but want to expand , I have a Mooer Bass Sweeper envelope filter I borrowed from the guitarist in our band (a Treasure trove of gear) I have to ask Have you tried a Electro harmonix "Synth 9 or Mel 9" I'm interested on any feed back on these pedals. PS I gave a thumbs up and subscribed. I'm going to need advice on building up a selection of effects and the problems I may encounter, your site is the one I keep coming back too.

Any problems plugging the Voco Loco into the 1 spot? I heard the Voco is 15 volts.

really liked the piece. keeping the sax primary really grounded the work musically. involving

Super cool, I love it! Carrie Shared it on FB!
