we used to do this as a saxophone section in college to unify time feel, esp on solis, but on other stuff too.

Wow, Bob! This is so true! If you have the right timing in your fingers, then you can almost play anything. Or you can at least move a lot more «out» from the tonallity in many situations. This was sooo inspiring! Thanks 🎉

Yes! I first learned this from you a while back…then saw MB write notes to himself on this in his practicing notes that was published not too long ago. One application for me, is I have trouble with fast lines. So, I slow them down (bpm = 60) and sometimes find this kind of percussive practice is very helpful in assisting me to straighten things out and play even and rhythmic. After all, the rhythm is in the fingers!! 😎

Great for arpeggios too. Each gives a different time feel …. 🙏🏻

Wow, I'm jealous. I wish my instrument sounded that tight. Bob's repairman is top notch!

Super cool, would that be also helpful with scales?

@bobreynolds 6 ай бұрын

sure. but try playing them descending, so you're starting with all fingers resting on the keys/pearls. then you're pushing each key down, as opposed to raising fingers up (to which there is no definitive stop point, which leads to "flying fingers")

Thankx- but his old OL „died“ and he was looking for a new one.

@bobreynolds 6 ай бұрын

still looking. this video actually IS my old Link (that still *sadly* doesn't feel right). I'm going between a few different Links and a few GetASax Slant and Reso customs.

Did you ever play metal ones? Any reasons why maybe not?
