Does anyone, learned in the ways of iPads, know how I can download and save that backing track?

I use the Icloud linked to my ITunes account loaded on my PC. Down load the file to your PC, import it to ITunes. ITunes talks to the cloud. Download from the cloud to your Ipad. There's probably other ways too.

Saw this thread, joined up and recorded a quick take on the minor blues with my Yani 991SC and Pillinger J mouthpiece. Usually I play the Pillinger PJ or Sopranoplanet PJ on my straight Sequoia, but decided to have a play on my curvy.

Bill welcome to café sax, please do introduce yourself in the doorbell section, just listening now to your recording.

So pleased to meet another Sequoia player, do you know @aldevis ?

Jeanette, I got in touch with Aldevis through Ed P. I love the sound of the Sequoia, especially with Marca American Vintage reeds, but they are hard to get except from the factory, so have asked Reeds Direct to stock them for soprano. Having a play today on my Yani.

I fell in the love with the Sequoia too and if I hadn't got my 62 would have bought one, in fact was tempted to do a swap but have a fondness for the 62. Also love Ed's mouthpieces. Hope to hear more of your recordings in the forum, take a look around you might like to join in the other monthly sound clip threads.

And most of the time (such as now) the first one was recorded on an iphone before I bothered to setup the proper mic. oops..

Wow what a superb piece of Alto and Baritone playing truly awesome

 

[Richie2176]

hi. Saw this was open to beginners so I thought I'd give it a go. Played through a couple of time then just hit the record button! I now feel like I'm stood in the town square completely naked!! (moderators please note I never play sax when naked for health and safety reasons )

thanks Chris for uploading the backing track

Very nice tone and well played

Thanks very much. I know we're all our own worst critics but I can only hear the faults in my playing. Your comment made my day.

We are all our own worst critics I agree Sir but You have nothing to criticise I'm a huge fan of your playing

and I'm waiting for your next upload of some more great sax playing

[El Robo]

Very nice tone and well played

Thank you for your comments. I agree with GJ77 it's always difficult to see past your own faults. It aso made me feel great especially as you liked the tone, always the holy grail when I'm huffing and puffing.

Ok, the chord structure's somewhat different but, who cares, it's jazz, man.
Plus the slowest rend(er)ing of Mr PC you've ever heard.
