i usually start with long tones/overtones, then scales, then excercises like playing riffs in all 12 keys or playing out of my jerry coker book. then i move on to playing different tunes out of aebersold books. and then maybe work on a transcription or two. all in all i try and get 3 hours a day.
Dont worry, I do rinse. Otherwise not only will I have to replace pads, my sax would stink! Haha...Anyway, what do you mean by set up? Do you mean brand? Its a Jupiter, professional type. I personally prefer them to Yamaha.
