The Dream

[dmmnola]

@JMV14eva

It's all me, dude! Just plugged the instruments into logic pro and played the changes. I still have the midi data, but you would have to plug it into the right instruments for it to make any sense.

[youngsaxman]

if u wanna have sheet music, u should find MIDI of this song, then use Encore to open the MIDI file

[caxassax]

is dukoff mouthpiece * * * * * ????

[53KINGSUPER20]

AWESOME, JUST AWESOME CAN'T SAY ENOUGH.GREAT TONE, COME BY SOMETIMES AND GIVE ME A FEW LESSONS. GREAT JOB.

[thecamful1]

what is it called when you like play all the extra notes out of the actual song.. is it like going back and forth up and down the scale or what because i really want to play like this

[SmudgeTheCat110]

have you got the sheet music for this?

I've spent ages trying to work it out and I can't, plus i've searched everywhere and can't find it :-(

[dmmnola]

@SmudgeTheCat110 That was all by ear, but I think that there is a Sanborn fakebook somewhere out there. Try Aebersold's website.

[SmudgeTheCat110]

@dmmnola

Eventually, after much much searching |'ve found it :-)

@SmudgeTheCat110 If you ever get the sheet music please let me know?

[hcmiyata]

very nice. maybe a bit much on reverb and echo?

[Parsons4sax]

That is such a nice tone

[juliosax93]

gongrats, really great video, but, beware, you exaggerated a little in reverb and your fingers where a little high,

but it was a great video...

[sebitas9000]

what do you think about the selmer serie II super action 80 and the reference in classical and jazz is best the selmer serie II ? what do you think?

[blackl1kemysoul7]

i think the reference is better but i dont care for either. i'd say get a yanagisawa a991 or a992. they have a tone closer to the guys in the video

[Chazzworth1]

very nice! I played The Dream years ago for a friends wedding, and have since lost the midi file I created for that. would you be willing to share it? BTW...what mic are you using?

[dmmnola]

AMT Elite Roam. I'm using the 'Duet' by apogee interface with logic 8. Processing is all done within logic.

[waviedavie1967]

Not wanting to rain on anyone's parade but wasn't the original played on a Yam 62? I'm sure I saw a credit for Yamaha saxophones on "A Change Of Heart"... Could be wrong.

[SFLogicNinja]

TONE!!!!!

Wow, wonderful tone.

I would love to get you to play on something sometime. That's awesome, David! Keep it up!

[fiercekrypton]

amazing

[0Magik8]

At 1:20 - Very nice!

That really was a nice touch.

[cleanmasterfn]

really sound. like they find selma refernce 54, is he sounded almost same?

[dmmnola]

I've heard really good things about the reference 54. I'm just a mark Vi fanatic ........... I feel younger when my horn is older than I am!

[borteek]

i think i know why you don't sound exactly like david. i think it's too much echo or editing on your sound. it's only a thought though lol. STILL AMAZING.

[dmmnola]

I just have a really big living room.

[acleimusica]

COOL!!! really sounds like Sanborn..lol

[borteek]

Where in the world did you get the music and backing track for this!? Please write back!

[dmmnola]

I created it myself using Logic Studio with a Yamaha MOTIF XS8 Midi Controller. All of the sounds are from the Logic Library. Fairly simple chord progressions for a mediocre keyboard player like me.

[borteek]

beautiful.. i thought it was better than david - your tone is so smooth and warm!

[dmmnola]

Thanks. I really like that grungy old mark VI. Nothing else I've ever played comes even close. It's got a soul of it's own I believe.

[syntheticsax]

Cool

Nice sound

[OLAPuTiPuTi]

You have a warm sound ^^

[peerschmidtke]

Sounds great! You`ve really done your own thing - I like it!

[dingcon]

very nice!.

[ddoggycanada]

NICE.....oh man i wish i had your tone.... it resembles david sanborn a lot!

[kolwood]

actually quitte nice.. little too soft maybe.. You use a dukoff as well right??

[dmmnola]

Yes, a dukoff D-6......... just like David Sanborn. However, even with the same horn and mouthpiece, I just can't get that hard, edgy sound that David Sanborn has. Guess I've just played straight-up jazz too long. Just goes to show you that the embochure and physics of lungs and oropharynx can make more of a difference than equipment.

[kolwood]

Well yeah in that sense every player is unique. But actually sanborn plays a dukoff d8 modified by Wil Grazzle in Berlin I think.. Another important thing is how different mark vis are, he actually uses a 6 digit (gives the players who are looking to buy hope:)) Also do you lay a Harrison lig as well??

[dmmnola]

Francois Louis ligature.

[joelitosax]

hello....Im looking for this song along time...please can you send me this background?....I"m sax player professional but working many time single (sax with track).......thank you

p.s. I have many songs by david sanborn(minus one)you need?....I send for you

[secretwomenssociety]

That is frickin awesome. You go boy. You is my child right?

[GILVANDO]

Very Good Sound Quality.
