Your camera mike is picking up too much direct sound, rather than via your amp. For your videos I would suggest DI'ing your sax/FX through a mixer, as the effected sound was barely discernable.
Hello. I am a complete beginner on alto saxophone who plays at church and get a few invitations to gigs. The only thing I know is the Major Scale and I've been getting by with it but I feel like I need to improve my playing. Music is so vast such that I don't know where to go from here
Bayanda Dlamini Listen, listen, listen. Listen to the players and styles you want to sound like over and over and over. The same song over and over and over. Structure would be very beneficial to you. If there is a community concert band that has written music that would be great. Private music lessons would be great too. I’m guessing you’re not from the US. Most wind players get their start in school band programs. We spend years reading music before we get a chance to improvise. But listening will be key for you. Then hours of trying to play EXACTLY what you hear on those recordings. You’ll end up hearing those songs hundreds of times easily. Good luck!
1) What does EQ mean 2) How do you connect to the speaker/amp as it’s not shown in the vid 3) What’s the box next to it ?Is it some kind of interface /mixer or is that the speaker /amp ? I have this pedal at home and a mic and I want to know what else I need to get to get it to work. Thanks
Hi Chez, great video on Boss VE20. Are there any settings documented (how to set them up) so I don't have to go through the manual?.....Nope, not lazy, just in a hurry - got a Monday night gig coming up and rehearsal tomorrow. Need to have some settings for use.
Just purchased the VE-20 to use with my sax, great to see this video as I am looking for the right settings. I'll be sharing with the band at rehearsal tonight, hoping that on the tunes with horn sections, like superstition, that I'll get a much bigger punch.
Hi Chez, I play Tenor in a band with a guy who doubles on Trumpet and Trombone. We have the harmonies and our parts worked out for two instruments but quite often he will drop us for another gig. Is the ve-20 a good option for me to use when Im the only horn player ?
When doing my chromatic scales the C# key pad does not open but when I open the pad with my finger the key moves but when I press it again the pad stays closed do I need to oil it somehow?
Hmm...sounds like it's sticking. Pretty common, especially on sopranos. You can do a cheeky clean up job. Check out this video, it talks about repairs; ruclips.net/video/R7TmkzZSgbM/видео.html
I brought it in to the sax repair and all that was wrong was the spring came off something when I dropped it he did not even charge me after all I let him fix it after the fall and I guess he missed it. Thanks Chez. Pete
That’s such a unique microphone system Chez. Nice color too. Looks like it’s somewhat wireless too so you don’t have to wear the transmitter pack on your clothes somewhere. I’ve seen numerous other male and especially female saxophone players use a sax mic system like that. I know those are real good cause you get the ability to move around on stage more often during your live sax playing performance. Hopefully you can make more videos using the sax mic system cause I noticed a lot of your videos just feature the saxophone with no microphone put on it. Of course I know the best key to a clip on microphone for any kind of saxophone is trying to stick or put it in the best spot on the bell of the sax to get the best balance of sound. I always thought right in the middle of the sax bell was the best part despite most sound from a saxophone comes from the many openings on the middle of the instrument where you play it with your fingers. Either way awesome vid. Made my day just watching it. ❤️ 💋
Buen video Chez, Boss ve- 20 es un buen pedal... pero tiene un pecado mortal, al cambiar los efectos en tiempo real no es inmediato e impide ocupar varios efectos en una misma canción. Saludos de Chile!
WHY DONT YOU SHOW YOUR AMP IN THE PROCESS, IM IN THE LEARNING PROCESS I NEED TO SEE HOW YOU WIRED YOUR AMP IN THE PROCESS. thank you like the video otherwise.

Aprendo muito com suas aulas e informações. Deus lhe abençoe com toda a sua família. 😘🌹🌹🌹🎷💪🏻👍🏻🇧🇷🇧🇷👍🏻🙏🏻 Brasil 😊👍🏻
Ha ha! Tried the marriage thing once. He cheated on me after just after our first anniversary. Turns out marriage isn't for the faint hearted. Oh, and another lesson - never trust a bass player ;-)
Oh, sorry to know that. We could still just try living together anyway, right?. But I feel morally obligated to let you know that I'm into bass clarinet recently, does that account me as a bass player? Now seriously, kind regards from Mexico City, your replying is a a very nice thing !

REALLY DUDE? ALWAYS SOMEONE OUT THERE THAT THINKS THEY KNOW EVERYTHING
@@BMBEYC And you know what?
Some of us do.
well this is the coolest thing I've stumbled upon. I'm a violinist looking at pedals and you came up. Fat melodies happening here, love it so much!!!
At 1:31 I NOTICED THE TRUMPET LAMP OMFG THATS SO COOL
What brand is your wireless microphone for sax ?
When you hit the harmony pedal did you say it added an octave below? If it did could you tell me how to set the VE20 to do this please?
Chez, your're a delight, have a lovely day

I hear not really difference, can you show more from the Boss VE
Please can you let me know which one exactly all cables and all cables for mixer and I will be need for work ?
Can you share a little bit for the setting of eq. How we set for alto and soprano. Thanks
1) What does EQ mean 2) How do you connect to the speaker/amp as it’s not shown in the vid 3) What’s the box next to it ?Is it some kind of interface /mixer or is that the speaker /amp ? I have this pedal at home and a mic and I want to know what else I need to get to get it to work. Thanks

quel marque votre micro svp merci

How’d it go?
She is beautiful and plays perfect
Very cool
Hi Chez ! :)......it's possible with that pedal,one sax sounding like maybe a horn section ?......
Great vid! Thanx

hi, i love this video its very simple and understanding lovely mix , i do love to know where i can get one too.am single too lets mingle serious tho
Hi Chez, how have you got the pedal set up ? Is both the mic and the pedal into a mixing desk ?
Great videos by the way !!🎷🎷
Wow you are bad to the bone on that saxophone. Awesome great playing and technique. My total musician's respect to you. ❤
Any comments you could add regarding using compression?
I often put a limiter on in post but don;t tend to use compression live. Cx
You're amazing! So you're using the VE20 pedal, but what kind of microphone do you use?
Chez, what microphone is recommended? Thanks :)...doh! Just caught that you explain it!
CSMedia hello ?
Hi Chez-what is house music? Possibly covers?
It's like pop/dance music. A good example is Sigala, Sweet lovin
When doing my chromatic scales the C# key pad does not open but when I open the pad with my finger the key moves but when I press it again the pad stays closed do I need to oil it somehow?

"into the gods..." .... love it!
Bravo Chez!! It's what I was waiting for!!!
Thanks and hugs!!!
Cool Chez
What happens to the device? Use a non-PSA power adapter
It can be plugged in or battery operated, then it connects to your mic via xlr cable....
Qual é este seu microfone? Quanto custa um desse aí ?
