Get a HUGE SAX SOUND for your mix in 5 STEPS!

Hello guys,
as requested by my friend Macca I put together a short tutorial on how to process your sax sound the basic 5 effects available in any DAW (Digital Audio Workstation).
I use Logic X but you can apply the same knowledge to any other software or even live for your performances.
enjoy and please comment!

Man I can’t even explain how grateful I am for this video. I have spent a gross amount of hours doing random things on Logic and getting no where close to the sound I wanted. This was a beautiful set up. Thank you so so much

[@sax_n_axe]

You and me both! It was so frustrating. Nobody really wants to show how these sax guys get that pro sound. Still trying to really figure this all out

[@johnlannikk2701]

Amazing how different it sounded in the mix, punched right through, and sat nicely. I would have been adding more delays, but that would have been too much. Thanks for this.

[@charlesdiraimondotenor]

Grazie Fabio, I just applied your techniques to a sax solo and it sounds excellent......

[@LordSax]

Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏 Amazing tutorial about our sound🙏🙏🙏

[@tanmayarora2748]

big thank you for this video, i was struggling with my mix, will definitely try this

[@alphachensax]

Big thank you for your gracious sharing 😚

[@fady_saxophonist]

Thank you thank you bro, learned a lot 🙏

[@DrCet01]

thank you. thats great. will try today.

[@TRUMPETSIZZLE]

Hi Fabio. I would like to know the plugins you used. my UAD realverb does not have length adjustment. If you can name all the plugins I will try exactly as you did! Thanks very much for your help! 😊

[@FabioMarziali]

I use plugins inside logic x for reverb, not third party stuff...

[@marcomarrone174]

Bravo Fabio!!

[@sax_n_axe]

Very helpful. Can you another more advanced one to show how to record video playing sax combined ?

[@p.w.2149]

A big thank you for this Video. I‘ll try this by myself. Also the tip with putting the mic nearer in steath further is a point I‘ll have to try out, cause my muffly room don‘t sound pretty good...

[@FabioMarziali]

Yeah the further away the microphone is, the more the room acoustic will go into your mix. I like to work with a super dry sound and make it better with fx

[@augustosantos708]

thank u man, love your job with kreisberg!

[@michaeldavis9954]

Excellent video. Thanks!!

Great video Fabio!

Great video, very informative! Greatings from germany✌🏼

[@ccordobina]

Thank you, very good english, I understand perfectly. Can you make a video on how you transcript music? Good ideea to make tutorials.

[@FabioMarziali]

Thanks! Do you mean how do I transcribe melodies and harmony or you mean sax solos?

[@ccordobina]

@@FabioMarziali yes sax solos, you make sheets for sax. What process are you using, software, etc. Would be interesting.

[@FabioMarziali]

@@ccordobina I use logic x inside notation for my scores. If I have time I will make a tutorial too

[@vincentgaglio5106]

Awesome you are such a great player, love your music as u know , what DAW are you using

[@FabioMarziali]

Logic x

[@pacomaisanava4390]

Wonderful video! What microphone do you use?, thanks

[@FabioMarziali]

My setup is written in the video description of my youtube cover videos...

[@roxannanapolitano502]

Super! Your channel is really interesting! 8:05 How you change the lenght from MS to S? Is it possible to use pitch correct? Can you show us in new video how you use it?

[@FabioMarziali]

To change the lenght of the reverb you can use the lenght knob, every reverb module has one. It is the most important value for a reverb

Thanks Fabio!

[@kingsleyamaechina]

Thank You soooo much Brother

[@fabricedufour9536]

Thanks you, i will try your setup on m'y records. But I would like to know how do you do to substract the Key mechanism noises ? Congratulations from France.

[@FabioMarziali]

I like the mechanics sound, i usually keep it. One way is to put the microphone further away from the hands but i personally dont mind.

[@saxdee24]

Great setup! Do you use any external mixers when you are recording or you record directly into your audio box which goes to the daw and then add the mix later. I personally don’t really enjoy recording dry sound. Can’t feel the music

[@FabioMarziali]

I use real time software monitoring to add reverb to the sound. No mixer needed as they add noise to the signal

[@nsiac]

@@FabioMarziali Hi Fabio, please correct me if I'm wrong. As far as I understood, when you record in the studio/at home, you just use a microphone that goes directly in the audio interface which is connected to the computer and you use real time software monitoring for reverb. What is the difference when you play live? Do you still use the real time software monitoring or you use a different setup?

[@FabioMarziali]

@@nsiac live i have a normal mixer with fxs....

[@nsiac]

@@FabioMarziali Do you have a recommended small mixer to bring with you for live performances? Also, do you still use the laptop to select the base when playing live? Thanks!

Grazie, un tutorial veramente utile!!! Ti capita di usare anche VST o plugins esterni a quelli di Logic X?

[@FabioMarziali]

Si certamente

[@VanSax]

@@FabioMarziali ce ne è qualcuno in particolare che consiglieresti?

[@FabioMarziali]

@@VanSax intendi per effetti? Effetti per sax uso solo quelli di Logic x. Per il mastering ho Ozone 9. VST ho komplete 12

@@FabioMarziali perfetto. Grazie mille! :)

Hi Fabio! What recording software is that?

Can i use this software in live in sametime? ??

[@FabioMarziali]

Yes but you need a strong audio card

[@dinithipoornima7846]

Can you please tell me an app to record sax songs without a mic. Because I don't have a mic . Is there any mobile app to get the sound as a mic/ studio ? Because when I record using mobile phone's default recorder , the sound doesn't feel as when it is with the mic... Plz help me

[@FabioMarziali]

Hello. To achieve a pro sound you need a professional microphone, i am afraid there is no way around. You could eq and filter the sound recorded by your phone mic but you will never achieve the clarity and beauty of a condenser studio microphone

[@dinithipoornima7846]

@@FabioMarziali Yes sir.. I can understand now. It's clear now Thank You so much for explaining me sir.. ❤️🤗
