YungGoat Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 A little different from the usual. I think your ears will find it satisfying. https://soundcloud.com/yunggoat/saxxiestdelight 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty5511 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I too like that very breathy Sax tone. If you or anybody comes across an overblown tenor, please, please post it. That is the one sax tone that I used to use a lot back in the late 80's - early 90's. I think this current tone layered with an over blown tenor would make an incredible tone. I'm just getting back into playing again after a twenty one year hiatus. One of my old bands wants to get together for a 25 year reunion gig.So, I assembled some of my old equipment and one by one the old gear was failing. I already committed to doing this gig, so all I had was my Roland XP-80. I decided to download Mainstage 2 from Apple for $29.95. It took five nights to download all of it. I was amazed that it could do even more than all of my old equipment combined. So I needed a 88 key weighted action digital piano. It was a no brainer. Casio Privia series. I bought the PX150.It worked wonderfully with the roland and It routed through my Macbook. Then the sound card went out in XP-80.I wasn't about to spend $2k on a new synth or workstation. At first I wasn't impressed with the XW. I went on line and checked out its midi implementation.That got my attention. Then there was the price… under $400.00! I'm so damn happy I bought that synth. I didn't like the step sequencer. Now I love it.Didn't like the fact that it didn't have channel aftertouch. Don't miss it a bit. And wouldn't you know it… It has some really amazing sounds too.Why would anybody spend money on a midi controller, when for the same price you get so much more with XW series. Sorry….didn't mean to rant. Keep the tunes coming, sounds great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Null Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 This should make you even happier. When you use the XW with an aftertouch controller it recognizes the MIDI codes and plays modulation! Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
