Yamaha VENOVA-YVS-100 Hybrydowy instrument dęty

Nem ajánlom. Szaxofonos vagyok, ki akartam próbálni ezt az érdekes hangszert, de azonnal visszaküldtem, ahogy kipróbáltam. Rendkívül nehéz jól megszólaltatni, nem túl kényelmes és nincs jó hangja.

I would not state it as a beginner instrument at all. It is my fourth wind instrument after mouth organ, ocarina and recorder. Quite a different one; however, the fingering is similar, moreover, easier than a recorder's. The two octaves range is a big advantage, more or less it works as well - you can get a variety of sounds out from it. The drawback is that without good hearing (relative pitch) no way to cope with problematic halftones - they can be adjusted by changing blow speed, buccal volume etc. effectively. Despite its surprisingly small size it is very loud; sounds quite nice in spacious, reverberant halls, chambers (in small, dead rooms - according to roommates - awfully). To sum up, I'm satisfied with the instrument - if you ask me, it is a practical alternative to soprano saxophone. I hope that one day an alto version will also be available. One more thing: the resin reed - well, it works but nothing more. I needed to buy 2,5 size regular reeds - after switching, it feels and sounds like a miracle.

Hubica zrejme nie je veľmi kvalitná, čo má vplyv na techniku hry... na zvuk si treba zvyknúť,.
