[@derekakien7379]

A few of us don't like Trane's sound. Bearing in mind the age of the recordings I am sure it would sound better now - and I don't mean remastering. CDs are not great sounding either tbh.

[@aninaholbek]

1: bare walls sounds like you're playing in a bathroom. 2: walls with foam sounds like a bathroom with foam walls (just a guess, never seen a bathroom with foam walls). 3: Wooden panels sounds like a professional studio where legendary albums have been recorded ;) Incredible sound!

Better Sax Thanks Jm I already aquired your "how to play by ear" 5 note pentatonic scale two weeks ago.. I'm getting pretty good with the 5 notes but unfortunately that's where my practicing has been put on hold intermittently because of juggling work comittments and now building music room off my garage.. But I promise I will get to it when my private practice room is good and ready and from then I will sign up for more online lessons that's available from BSAX. .

Wow!! Good for you!!! Nothing feels better than the satisfaction of money well spent!!! I guess listening to a stereo would also be very improved by those panels. Fantastic!!!

[@bettersax]

They mainly sell these for studio control rooms, live recording rooms, mixing rooms and audiophile listening rooms. In a normal sized room, the panels will make listening to music on hi-fi speakers a sublime treat.

Another great video Jay. A remarkable difference in room acoustics with the panels vs. the foam. I have the foam in my studio. I will check out the glk panels. BTW, I hung my foam with 3M adhesive strips so it shouldn't mess up the walls when i take them down........I hope.

[@kwootamuckbear9294]

Everyone explains everything except when it comes to cost. You said they gave you a small discount, and in return you gave them an exceptional plug. Show them this video and maybe they’ll give you another discount. You said you paid for it yourself so, but stop short of saying. It cost ex-amount of dollars. I have purchased products in the past from your other tutorials, and you gave us the pricing. While we all probably can’t afford the number of panels it will take to cover our practice room; plus shipping you wouldn’t deter us if you mentioned what you paid. Thanks for the tips and demonstration. Was that thee “Stan Getz “ commenting? You’re a great guy and your efforts should be rewarded. I will now search on line for the panels and hope I can make a purchase. Keep up the great work you do, you’re much appreciated.....I also bought the just joes neck strap for my Christmas gift👍🏽🎵🎶🎵🎷.✌🏽I’m guessing $200/ panel before I go look them up. Thanks🎷

[@bettersax]

Sorry for not including the price. Since I made the purchase for the 2 studios at the same time it was quite expensive. Shipping is included for orders over $1K. They have many options for panels, but I got the most expensive ones. Someone else could get very similar results and spend quite a bit less. For both rooms I paid just over 3K euros and they gave me 15% off after the video was made. There are 13 different panels in the small practice room and they are different sizes and prices. I think with a budget of 1K - 1.5K anyone can get a small room done very nicely. Of course there are DIY options that cost much, much less.

[@davidasteed]

subbed! this is the FIRST and best video that really brings home the difference that (what? $500-$1000 investment?) gave the room for warmth, clarity, and feel.

[@ian_s7481]

I made my own but with adjustable front openings so they will absorb more or less, I was then able to tune them into the room.

[@melron1000]

Really big difference... looks great too.

[@jnaime]

Well done ! And those panels are beautiful ! :) In your videos we don't imagine that your room is so tiny haha. I have a very bad room for practising, small appartment and I play in my main room (TV + sofa + desk + kitchen) all in an open space in a kind of "Z" shape room (the one in Tetris game lol) ... And there is a lot of anoying sound/reverb when I play ! So I'll keep this video for when I'll have money for that kind of panel. I was wondering of buying foam but it will ruins the look of my room ;)

[@bettersax]

It's all about finding the right angle to create the illusion of a larger room. There are DIY options if you search YT. They probably won't look as nice though...

[@enricaranda1804]

The mic of the GIK guy is outstanding, what a sound mate, lul

[@jacoblarsson1385]

can you make a video where you show all your saxophones, mouthpieces and gear you use?

[@bettersax]

Good idea, I'll put it on the list.

[@brucehussar2600]

Very nice improvement. The foam sounded just dead, the bare walls were a Ray Harryhausen soundtrack. Like the idea that they are easily movable.

[@bettersax]

Yeah, very convenient for when I have to paint those walls...

[@dus777]

I used "T" hobby pins to mount foam panels. For the price, a handful is a good way to reduce reflections and some absorption. Beyond that, yes, it takes much more thought and planning.

[@independentmind1977]

Heh I was wondering what those panels were when I saw them in the other videos. Those would be great for apartments because space is at a premium and they still look great, not everyone wants their one bedroom apt to be covered in foam. Heavy drapes help too (had to do it for music listening.) those are damn good looking panels.

[@alanhirayama4592]

Clearly the acoustic panels provide a "truer" sound! Do you think using your Jazzlab Deflector will give you additional sound coming back at you to give you a better perspective as to what is actually coming out of your horn? Awesome addition to your room! Thank you for sharing!

[@bettersax]

Honestly, now that I have these up I don't think I'll use the deflector in there much since the room is so small anyway. On the recording you can't hear it as much, but the sound coming back to my ears when I'm playing now is a real pleasure...

[@vincentgaglio5106]

Awesome , and they are a good look,

[@KadrianThomas]

Hi Jay what about practicing out in the open like at a park? Is it a good idea?

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Depends where you are. In Chicago, better have a permit, especially anywhere near the CTA (different permit). Total 125.00 yr. Then you can even busk.

[@KadrianThomas]

Winds of March Journey/Perry tribute band thanks for that piece of insight, I never knew that. I am especially interested in the point about what it will do for me as a player when practicing outdoors vs in a closed space. Where I am there are big parks where people can go to practice their instruments or vocals. I’m not sure if it’s effectiveness since I’ve never tried it.

[@omegakek]

@@KadrianThomas It's a good idea since essentially what these panels are trying to do is getting as close to a room with "no walls" or reflections as they can

[@christianusjustus]

Hi, thanks for sharing this video. Where the bass straps on the ceiling also in the new plan, or did you have them already. and why on one side 10 centimeters panels and on the other side 5 centimeters, was part of the plan or a budget reason?

[@bettersax]

The bass traps on the ceiling were part of the plan. Before I had foam up there too. I put the thinner panels on one side just to save space since it's so small. I have 1.20 meters across so 15 centimeters is already more than 10% of my space.The foam was 4cm thick so I only lost a total of 7 cm.

[@philliphill3390]

Take the foam you pulled off the wall, cut them up into similar sized segments like the acoustic panels. Mount those pieces on thin wood frames to enable them to be transported and hung up just like your acoustic panels.

[@C--A]

Foam is a much more inferior material for absorption! That's why 99% of music studios (big and small) these days use acoustic fiberglass/rockwool for absorption. Gone are the day's 60's/70's when most didn't understand room acoustics. And would just hang foam, egg cartons or a spare rug on the wall and call it a day! Gon

[@MrBoybergs]

Very impressive result. This video encourages me to raise a topic that I've often wondered about. I've spent donkeys years doing my practice facing either a wall or mirror. The issue is that whenever I'm away from such a reflective surface ie; rehearsals, gigs etc' I find it tricky to assess my true sound as I've become too dependant on receiving this direct sound coming back at me. I have one of those clip on sound reflectors but I find that they only offer the same effect as a wall when you play bell tones. So do you consider practice while facing a wall a good or a bad thing?

[@bettersax]

Good question... I don't consider it good or bad but something to do only sometimes. Most of the time I practice with earplugs in to protect my hearing. This helps me to play with a more full sound as I'm not holding back due to volume. I have to say that with the new panels, even with the earplugs in, the sound is much improved. I can still hear all the detail that wasn't there before, only quieter. When I play gigs, I almost always use the sound reflector thing even when I have a monitor.

[@MrBoybergs]

@@bettersax Thanks so much for the reply. Those panels do definitely lift the sound as you say. I live in the UK on a canal boat with a wood-cladded interior so I'm probably getting a similar effect by default. I'm gna try the earplug suggestion ( I'v already ordered some on-line). Thanks again. Great channel btw....we never stop learning :)

[@EmmTeeDubb]

Thanks for this and all of the other video tips, what an amazing difference in sound. I am a part-time player mainly at church but am enjoying practicing more and more. I don't have a studio but generally practice in my bedroom but have been told that a better sound would be to practice in my closet due to the clothes helping absorb the sound. It's about the size of your studio and same shape. Is that better than an open bedroom with vaulted ceilings?

[@bettersax]

Mike, try out the closet and see how it sounds. It will certainly be more dead and have less reverb. You may prefer playing in there.

[@saxman7131]

[@uroparopa]

I preferred the foam tbh

[@williesordillo8621]

How are these panels at sound proofing the room so that the amount of sound heard outside the room is minimal? My primary issue is that my wife is sensitive to noise of any kind, and I mostly practice when she's out of the house. I would love to be able to practice freely at any time without annoying her. I do have a thick, rubber sound-absorbing treatment installed under the sheetrock, foam on the walls, and a thick Styrofoam-like sound absorbing material on the ceiling, but it's not enough to maintain marital peace....

[@1dotele]

The problem most have here in the states is most houses all the rooms have a lot of windows

James, they also make free standing panels that can be moved around a room and not attached to any walls. I found that these were very effective even when they weren't on all of the walls.

Hi there, I'm just wondering, do you ever do remote recordings in that room for artists albums? If so, isn't the only "loophole" that you have still a bit of room characteristic (even how nice it is) on your signal that you can't remove?

[@bettersax]

Good question. Normally when I record I mic much closer so as not to pick up a lot of the room. When you have a nice sounding room like in a proper studio they will often use a room mic and mix a small amount of that in to give some natural ambiance to the sound. In a room like mine the recordings are going to be much better since there will be fewer eq adjustments necessary to achieve a natural sound. The sound is much more natural now and that's what we want when recording. I haven't yet experimented and compared to previous recordings with this yet though.

[@KristoforLawson]

Handy tip for anyone getting foam. Use 3M removable tabs to hang them rather than glue. They work the same and easy to remove.

[@SH1974]

Hi, me again... ;) Another interresting Video - but You've not improved the Sax-Sound, You improved the room accoustic. But the improvement is dramatic anyway. I sometimes take my Sax out to practice somewhere in the forrest, (already had kind of a duet with a bird there, probably a blackbird) I really love that no-echoe-acoustic there. (maybe I should take my Sax on a hike to the alpes! An echoe with delay-times to find in the alpes might be very interresting...) As I began practice in my house, I had to find a space to practice. Fortunately I have very good windows in my house (3 layered vacum isolation glass, that isolates temperature and noise very good) so disturbing the neighbors is not affect as long as I do not practice 3AM or so. I choosed playing to my boock's corner (several "Billy" Bookshelfs) there I've found the fewest echoes or frequency disturbings. And when I lift my view from the music stand, I see bookspines of Jules Verne, History Boocks about Egypt, the british Empire (Tudors) and the vikings over Astronomical DeepSky boocks, Potter, Lord of the Rings up to Stephen King or Dean Koontz - and I have many, many inspirations in my mind. I hope, I can once translate this journey to my music. P.s. Avoid seeing bookshelfs of cook - or recipebooks (3 trays are full of it) while playing. It can cause a spittiy sound! Really! (I've tested that!!)

[@derycktrahair8108]

You are right. You take your sound with you. Living in high density housing I don't play Tnr at home. 5min drive & there's an outdoor place that works. It's not romantic like Sonny Rolands playing on a bridge, but if you want play you will find a way. Playing outdoors can give you a full tone, & because it's inconvenient you have to plan your practice. (Just goes to show how motivated we are). Thanks for sharing your ideas. That was an encouraging comment.

[@samdowner1792]

What I want to actually know is how to get a better sound from my sax. That reedy tone that many great players get. i have Otto link mouthpieces and use soft reeds but the sound still isn't what I want. So jay any hints?

Yea but how loud is it when people are outside the room or the house? Can people hear the sound a lot less??? That’s a BIG part of practicing in a crowded residential area. I got acoustic foam and it did make a difference in sound quality than without. I want it to be where can’t hear me practicing as much.

[@C--A]

Acoustic absorption foam wouldn't do much to stop people hearing from outside! The good studios in highly crowded residential areas use special soundproof windows. Ones that block out almost all the sound from the room from the outside. As long as the exterior of the building isn't thin wood etc. Usually is thick bricks or concrete in urban areas, then the studio is built as a room within a room.

[@derekakien7379]

Yes big improvement. Very aesthetic too. Good investment. Can't imagine they could be made cheaply - look quality materials. Nice try on the free plug, if you don't ask you don't get. Unlucky this time. LoL. They must be well pleased.

[@badrudinlazim1400]

The acoustic panels really made such a big improvement in the overall tonal quality of the sax sound. The egg carton foam gives a dead and bland sound. Its like playing the sax under a big tree out in the park. The bare walls projects a rather too shiny or glaring sound. You can be taken aback when blowing the high notes a bit hard. KEEP THE PANELS there. Don't ever remove them!!!

[@C--A]

Playing under a big tree would actually sound much better than the egg carton foam! The curve of the tree would mimic a curved cylindrical diffuser. And the numerous tree branches with leaves (only if low enough) would absorb some mids and highs. Plus scatter the sound.

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Thank God, you got rid of that ugly stuff. I was worried as hell about a fire there for you. That did not look safe at all. See Iroquis theatre fire, also Cocoanut Grove (1st n 2nd deadliest fires in US, 602 and 490 dead, Chicago fire was 300 dead total) and more recently, The Station (2003, 100 dead). Video is right on KZbin. Get the longer video. It looks like any other dive for 6 minutes before the fire. That's what packing foam gets you. A very, very toxic and unbelievably fast fire. One breath and you'll be dead. Fires can outrun YOU. Driving, even. Just sayin'. Let. It. Burn. if it ever comes down to it.
