Mouthpieces Got a new LAW Mouthpiece. again.

[TomMapfumo]

..not while he's playing; he tends to keep them in a fixed position with the facing at the bottom!

So which is better - The Bauhaus Walstein/PPT combination OR the Mauriat 66/Law Buzzer combo. Anyone played/recorded both? Peter Scaddam, where art thou?

Kind regards
Tom

Dave,

How many mouthpieces do you own? Do you rotate them?

It's not that many.I promise.

3 Tenor Law mp's.
2 Alto mp's, Beechler Bellite 8 and a JK toneking special HR MP.
1 Soprano mp, Ed Zentara Refaced Otto Link 7* HR MP (NICE)
Soon i will have a LAW alto mp so it will be 3 alto mp's😀

At the momment i am playing my LAW LCD tenor mp most of the time and love it's dark sound and with the Mauriat 66RUL it's lush

Hi Tom, 🙂For me the best combination is defo the Mauriat with a LAW buzzer for big band volume work and an Ed Pillinger HR 6* for teaching and quartet work,with the BW i would use exactly the same although i may favour a LAW LCD to give plenty of depth to the top tones.
I am working on Dave Keighley to get some sounds up on my web page and when Ray Dickaty gets back from Poland he has \promised to send me some of his 66R and LAW AD Buzzer custom 110 set up.

Hi all, D.K and Birdman, Ray D, here from sunny Warsaw....yes very hot....
just catching up on internet stuff, have got a wireless modem set up, unfortunately a bit intermittant in its working. But anyway, I too hope to get some recordings of the law 110 buzzer, 66R combo sorted as soon as really, maybe even here if I can grab a recording device...some very beautiful spaces that I am itching too have a play in...so as soon as I do that I will email to you Birdman.
I did all the overdubs for the forthcoming Loka album a few weeks ago in the UK, and the Law buzzer worked a treat for all the styles that I needed to play, just a slight change of Lig occasionally, I tried using an alto Francois Louis which produces a higher overtone sound IMO, and is noticeably more "cutting" in a studio situation, through a good mic, as well as Lawries own lig..all great..
Hoping this message finds you all well.
regards to all...

Everyone always thinks I'm a loud horn player....Honestly, I dont think I am
Cheers Dave, I have also checked out some of your stuff, re😛revious posts and its great...I guess you and I are working in the same sort of field, ie:rock band formats, whatever their type..and with me also spnding time in the free arena...
My previous band, that I was with for many years was more of a psychedelic-gospel-soul outfit called Spiritualized....and that, when we were on fire was some sound to behold....Glorious.🙂
Keep up the good work in the sunny North East, and I'm telling you now I have read your reviews on the LCD mpce, maybe one will be heading in my direction soon-ish;}

Hi Saxby, i am using the LCD most of the time now and love it.I just got my ALTO BUZZER 7* mp and used it lastnite at a gig and it was sounding great.Very happy with the sound on my alto now and my search is now complete on Tenor and Alto,next is the Soprano.The LCD Tenor is 1 big fat sounding piece with load's of body.
