 Re: What Separates Average Tone from Exceptional?

All above are 100% on the money. The only thing I can add is from a techie perspective.

iPhone or Android phone microphone: $0.50. Professional microphone used to achieve good recordings: $1,000 or more. If you didn't play back on a great home stereo system, iPhone or Android phone playback electronics: $1.50. Good home stereo: $1,000-$2,000 or more. Or headphones to play back from the iPhone or Android phone: Typical ear buds: $10-$20; good earphones: $200-$400.

So the "air", the "abdominal support", the "long tones", the "practice long tone dynamics", the "years of consistent practice", the mouthpiece/reeds, etc. etc. etc., are all MUCH more important than listening to recordings - even if you had the great equipment. Let a good teacher or other trusted musician evaluate your improvement, not recordings.
