Hardbopjazz Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 (edited) WTF? How deep a note does this thing get? Edited February 11, 2005 by Hardbopjazz Quote
Hardbopjazz Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 (edited) Could it be a tuba shaped differently and using a reed? Edited February 11, 2005 by Hardbopjazz Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 I was just gonna say Tubax, even before couw posted the name/pic. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 Adrian Rollini would say "What do you want me to do with this little thing?" Scott Robinson probably has recorded a few albums on it already! Quote

Jazzmoose Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 Eerily similar to the sounds I make after eating baked beans, yet strangely compelling... Quote

Д.Д. Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 This is how the tubax ZOUNDZ ! Well, you can get even better than this: here and here Both on Leo. Quote
Daniel Andresen Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 I Love the sound, seems to me that the lower a saxsophone gets the better I like it (The above doesn't contadict with the fact that I love both Soprano and Alto Sax) Quote
Alon Marcus Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 (edited) Yes, I can identify the instrument, it's mine! I lost it a few weeks ago during a walk in my backyard. Edited February 12, 2005 by Alon Marcus Quote

SGUD missile Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 After listening to the sample, I really had to go to the john when it got into the bottom octave ....... I bet you'd have to play this thing seated on a raised porta potty! Quote
couw Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 After listening to the sample, I really had to go to the john when it got into the bottom octave ....... time to rename the thing TubLAX then Quote
