      Hi william. I love that rich buzzing tone you are producing. Is that one of those new Guardala MP’s?

        Hi Jeff, thanks for stopping by. I’m using my Theo Wanne metal Ambika 7* on the song “Loving Arms”.

            Cool stuff William, thanks for sharing 🙂 I didn’t know Tom Jones did that song. The one that comes to my mind right away that I wanted to do on Tenor Sax was his song “She’s a Lady”…good stuff in there 🙂 Keep up the great work William. The great thing in listening to your videos between your Guardala and Ambika, is that you sound pretty much like ‘you’ with 2 different MPs, and that’s where our own internal anatomy comes into play. The one thing I will say is that your tone on the Ambika seems to come across to be slightly more fuller/fatter and with more clarity.

              Thanks Michael.I find the Ambika easy to blow and sounds fuller/fatter like you say. I use a vandoren java 2.5 with the Ambika and a java 2 with the fatboy. The fatboy is way loud but I can blow the Ambika a little softer, and fatter as time goes by. And as time goes by I hope you’er doing well. I took my brother deep sea fishing here in Daytona. We went for the Mai Mai and caught hundreds of pounds. Tricky weather here in Daytona. Hope you’er blowing the horn again. Keep in touch

                Hi William, I have transposed over 150 tunes with Crescendo and recently I bought Finale’s PrintMusic. It does print the music out very nicely, but it takes me far longer to enter the music and has some software issues which caused me transposing errors. So I’ve gone back to using my trusted Crescendo package.

                If Crescendo works for you, stay with it because spending quite a bit more doesn’t always buy one a better solution.
                Hats off to the guys at NCH Software for making this product available for free to the public.
