Personally it’s all about how you set your embouchure. One thing, don’t play on a stock mouthpiece because it can only go so far. Get a mouthpiece like Meyer to start out and when you get a better handle, get a metal plated mouthpiece. For sounds, I would suggest just find how you want to sound. Do you want a softer and smoother sound? Or do you want a fatter darker sound? All depends on preference. Effects to learn would be verbrato, growl and eventually split tones when you get advanced. For reeds, I still play Vandoren V16 on my Alto for all occasions, but my tenor plays on Jazz Select Hard 2 Unfiled.

Amei sem som🔝👏👏👏Qual boquilha usa?

I'm trying to decide on whether to get the System 76 or the the 67R. I'm leaning towards the unlacquered finish just because I like the look, although the dark lacquer looks great too. I guess it comes down to rolled tone holes. I find it hard to believe that rolled tone holes make a big enough difference. If they did, wouldn't all the big horn manufactures put rolled tone holes on their top professional horns?

if I just listen to the sax sound it is very similar to violin.

its so beautiful... would love to horn like that (rip money)

Hi Pedro!

Great review and demo! I see that yours has double bracing on some of the bell keys, but the stock photos on the Mauriat and retailer websites only show single bracing. I am considering purchasing one soon, but was curious whether P. Mauriat has changed the design from a double-brace to single-brace design... Do you know the answer and/or is your sax a custom model? Thanks

Rolled tones holes are not my personal presence, so I'm excited to that P Mauriat has a wide range of choices.

Hi Pedro, I've just upgraded from my Yamaha YAS 280 and bought a P. Mauriat System 76 2nd Edition. My first impression is that the horn looks great and it feels quite solid and is definitely heavier than my Yamaha. I`m not a pro but I can definitely tell this is a very different horn than what I`m used to playing. There are two things what are concerning me though quite a lot. The first being that it is much harder to blow than my Yamaha and the second is that the horn doesn't seem to scream in the higher registers like my Yamaha can. I don`t think there are any leaks; all the notes play OK. I tried the P. Mauriat horn with my Yamaha neck and it seemed to blow a lot more freely. So it could be related to the neck, or does all this sound normal? The sound is definitely much more smoother than the Yamaha and when I play notes without the octave key it sound very nice like what I understand a vintage sound should sound like, but it seems like I've lost something at the top end. I should also mention that the horn has not been setup, it cam direct from the factory. Any advise you can offer would be much appreciated.

@lukasalihein

5 жыл бұрын

Yamahas tend to be brighter and more free-blowing than most saxes out there, so what you're describing is unsurprising. Sometimes changing one component of you setup will require changing others as well - you could try a softer reed for less resistance, for example. Also it's definitely worth having a good tech check out the horn.

@gds520

5 жыл бұрын

@@lukasalihein Thanks for your feedback. In fact, since I've got more used to the horn and experimented about I have made the following discoveries, which I would like to share with you. When, I tune my horn with my iPhone app, I found that it was consistently half a semitone or more flat right through the horn. At first this was a real concern for me and I even contacted the distributor to see what they had to say. I also noticed that it is very difficult to bend notes with this horn. What I have concluded is that, if the horn is cold it plays flat, this may be normal, I don`t know. Once the horn warms up it is better but I needed to put the mouthpiece right to the end of the cork for it to play in tune, which isn't ideal in my opinion. Note, at this time I`m playing with a Vandoren Jumbo Java A45 mouthpiece and a size 2 Legere Signature Series reed. Next, I tried a new mouthpiece, Meyer BA-2 M8M Rubber Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece. This changed everything. Suddenly the saxophone plays in tune and its possible to change the pitch with my ambiture having more control of the tone...... Bottom line, it seems as you said, it is necessary to change other things as well to achieve a good result and not just the sax.

So.. here we are 7 years later. Are you still playing the Mauriat?

i alsao play P-Mauriat but Tenor saxophone i have the 55swing jx it has brass bell copper bodey bow and neck so the collors are nice

Is that the 2nd edition?
