+CorvetteCoonass Don't cry for him. He has been cured of all afflictions AND He has become a dedicated Accordionist His finger technique on that thing is BEAST MODE BAD ASS!!!! People that are fans and friends call him, "Dedos!" (*dead*dose*)
I’m just saying it goes pretty much as low as a bari, but it has like 2 notes that go a little lower than the low A on a Bari saxophone. it sounds like a bari sax too.
Matthew Knopf there is a huge timbral difference between the two, the bigger bore size or the tubing and different configuration of the bends and straights changes the sound a lot. I doubt you’d say an alto and a tenor sound the same and the difference between them is (more or less) the same as a bari and bass. If you don’t hear a difference between the two then you either have a pretty poor ear or you’ve heard some crappy Bari saxes
+reelBigSpic Well, I'm not sure man. Pretty much just whatever the average Mexican Banda music group tuba bass lines play at. I think they use those upright tubas, not sure. I am putting together a musical subwoofer set up for my pop's Chevy. Usually, people use massive subwoofers and a bass restoration machine, but that results in boomy bass, or a Rap music type bass that I like, but it doesn't sound natural. And so, I though that maybe if I found out what frequency or Hertz tone Banda music usually uses in music/songs, I could tune the subwoofer enclosure's bass port/vent tube to a frequency that would allow the subwoofer to play either higher frequencies or somewhere in bewteen. Just not sure what the average Tuba plays most, in an average song. Maybe mostly 125Hz? Or as high as 160Hz?
Alejandro Alvarez You’re a sonic scientist! I wish I knew, but most players are blowing so wildly out of tune, I’d imagine it’s A=442 or higher, but it fluctuates. I wish I knew more about this. It’s only been a year, seems like enough time to have cracked this DaVinci Code. What did you come up with?
+reelBigSpic Hahaha. Ended up bullshitting the tuning on the subwoofer enclosure. Tuned it to about 37 hertz, with an aeroport. It was for a vehicle. Sounded so-so, not as good as expected. Guess he will need really good mids and highs speakers, as the tuba bass might play through those easier. Those tuba bass frequencies were still too high for the subwoofer we chose.
Chris, I totes agree. However, when I’m transporting it at the airport, it’s goes through a lot of hands that are probably not Bass Sax players, but I trust it will arrive safely. Thanks for your insight!
You know that. I know that. Try telling that to the 129M people that won’t stop calling it that. Sometimes you’ve got to just, “Go With The Flow.” 😉😉 #YTS #RamonIsNotAlone
playacrash Awwww it's all in good fun. Didn't mean to disappoint you. Honestly I thought it was just an in store improv jam. I'll have to send "dedos" there an email and ask if what he was playing was actually a legit song.
A lot of these two players are self taught. They literally don’t incorporate breathing techniques, but they become monster players after doing it the wrong way, for so many years.
@@reelBigSpic they say it takes fast air to play a brass instrument. While that may be true for your upper brass, i would venture to say that to play a lower brass instrument, like a tuba or a bass trombone, you need "fat" air. The tuba player was not opening his mouth enough to fill the horn. And yes, to accomplish this, you need to learn proper breathing techniques. But you're absolutely right. One name that comes to mind about doing it wrong untill he was amazing was Dizzy Gillespie.
