      It’s the same for short notes as is for long. Just start the growl and break up he notes with your tongue.
      There’s no embouchure change, just add the growl.which doesn’t come from your embouchure.

        Do you change the pitch of the humming when you play different notes?
        I can’t create a growling on Bb3. Maybe i should tray to hum with a different pitch.

            last night i played on another tenor saxophone, a selmer sa80 III, and it was much easier to hum and blow the tones . Even the Bb3 worked.
            I don’t want to blame my Jupiter Tenor and praise Selmer for being responsible for that. Maybe on a cheap chinese horn i could even do better. I only want to say that a hardware change could sometimes manage it.

            I looked into your growling demo. Very nice. Maybe i didn’t catch all, what you said there, but you didn’t tell something about changing the hum pitch. Maybe its not needed. 😛
