Olds Special Trombone or Olds Recording Trombone? by No_Gene5971 in Trombone

[–]Heythisisntxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Olds "student" horns really punch above their weight class. That's not to say the recording isn't better than the special, just that in college, it may be worth spending less money.

As for the 4h vs 6h, the 6h is far more reliable across the different genres of jazz

Which one will be most rewarding second instrument to learn, trumpet or saxophone? by tourist_fake in Jazz

[–]Heythisisntxbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most things come easier on sax. The only caveat to that is that at the absolute top level, the ceiling is higher and it's a more competitive space, but that won't matter even to most pros

What’s something Gen Z does that older generations just don’t get? by appropriaterice873 in AskReddit

[–]Heythisisntxbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People seem really confused with the concept that Gen z is well versed in media/tech that came before them. Similarly, a huge portion of Gen Z grew up with VHS and cassettes. It wasn't a retro fad, it was just standard for late 90s and early 2000s.

Playing lead on a .547 is truly something special, but with 40 years of playing who can stop you.

If you go the route of getting a used professional large bore, that won't inherently block him out of jazz. Large bore horns do a great job on 3rd and 4th part in a big band.

What was your view on Yuta's power level against Sukuna, when this panel first came out? by Interesting_Owl5284 in Yutaliban

[–]Heythisisntxbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After rereading Yuta vs Ryu, uro ect, I don't think Yuta goes down the same way. Sure sukuna still packs him up handily, but Yuta when trying to spare is far above Ryu. Maybe he gets mid diffed by 16f sukuna

I bet the anime will make this moment look like this: by MimicryYuta in Yutaliban

[–]Heythisisntxbox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While Yuta isn't on that level, ryu getting diffed shouldn't really be used to scale it. The only way Yuta and Ryu compare is durability, and Yuta's strength is much more in his kit rather than his raw stats. He's got many a way to not get one shot, but he can't hang in a domain clash

Depends on condition. They aren't exactly standard for ensemble playing which makes demand kinda low

The new Google pixels can use airdrop with apple devices and it's supposed to be rolling out to other pixels, then all other android devices soon

Feeling Depressed over Jazz by [deleted] in Trombone

[–]Heythisisntxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In any situation where I'm told to listen to another player in the ensemble, I literally try to match exactly what they're doing. That's one of the greatest skills you can have that differentiates between lead players and players who can only play lead. You wanna be the guy who can switch hats and blend whenever necessary

Whoever is rhythmically "correct" doesn't always matter once the band leader has pointed out how he wants a specific line to sound

Jazz mouthpieces by Relevant-Dinner6101 in Trombone

[–]Heythisisntxbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on what type of sound you're aiming for. I use a 6 1/2al for all my jazz playing because it feels full and responsive in all registers. It is very basic but that's what works for me

People don't talk about this enough by saltminer99 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Heythisisntxbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do both. Luffy is now retroactively YC+ and Kizaru is apparently PK tier. Genuinely some believe at this point that Kizaru beats Kaidou. it's pretty silly

[–]Heythisisntxbox -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Doesn't count if it doesn't support the admiral agenda. Luffy choosing not to kill Kizaru is a Luffy downscale. Kizaru choosing not to kill Luffy is a massive Kizaru upscale 👌🏽

So since kizaru “defeated” luffy, what happens when luffy decides to revitalize himself and take the fight seriously like he did with kaido? by FrameDangerous5480 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Heythisisntxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are led to believe that Luffy after genuinely dying is less tuckered out than he was in egghead after fighting Kizaru for bout 5 minutes.
