A 1914 silver Conn with a nine star Otto Link mouthpiece armed with a soft fibracell reed (plastic coated bamboo). Gives a tone I like, but is a bit hard to play. Not for playing in a big band but great for improvised music where you can set the pace according to how much you're lip muscles can put up with before you loose the ability of correct intonation. > very good > stuff indeed. Have you ever tried to use the looper > to make chord progressions by layering note of a chord > on top of each other with your sax? Yes. I actually thought that was what you had heard me doing in those live looping releases ;-) The first time on record where I used that looping technique was this tune: http://www.looproom.com/aol/01_Patterns.mp3 where I played sax (through a wha pedal) into an EDP and ran the EDP output (the loops) through different effects. While playing the lead sax line I overdubbed accurate notes (not all) into three loops to form three different chords that I could step between with foot pedals. So you could say that the harmony voicing of those three chords grew thicker the longer the lead sax line had been going.
