This is a little more challenging. View the video. What mpc is she playing on her tenor sax?

I also think so, but just upon the lig.
Sounds quite "nasal" to me. On that Yamaha I think it isn't the best match.

I don't think I'd blame the equipment for her "nasal" sound..........

Remember the sax solo on Spandal Ballet's "True"?

Yet she plays in a band and apparently been playing for years. Oh what a difference a mpc makes.

I have never heard it, but my director in jazz band almost made our band play it...I would have had that solo (shudder)

I asked my instructor how to play a solo on a pop tune. He says "What song are you playing?" I respond, "True by Spandou Ballet" He responds. "Wow. What a cheesy song."

It's very sweet and sincere playing. Sure it's a bit unrefined but she sounds REALLY into playing - and that's a good thing.

It's hard to tell by the looks of the mpc but could it be a Berg?

Yeah. The Lawton cap is a dead giveaway.
