Reduce Your Sax’s Noise by 50%

Whether it’s at home, in an apartment with shared walls, or in a hotel room, you need to practice your saxophone. But disturbing other people around you with too much noise is a legitimate concern.

The three mutes are placed in key parts of the saxophone: the bell, the neck receiver, and the mouthpiece. Once they’re in, they can cut down the volume without disturbing the sound quality. Each one is made from a honeycomb-style nylon foam and held together with carbon fiber stems. They are also washable and can be used over and over again!

Reviews

It actually works
You are likely reading this after reading the other 2 star comment thinking this is a pipe dream. I am currently practicing saxophone while my roommate sleeps in the adjacent room and there's no issue with being too loud. It works far better than I expected. It removes the resounding echo that a saxophone without this thing inside of it has. If you are on the fence, try it I swear. I was absolutely getting this "knowing" I would return it but just wanted to know for sure. I will definitely be keeping it.
Does about 10% of what it claims.
I live in an apartment and was really hoping this product would work. I knew that if there weren't other products like this that are popular, there was a reason. But I purchased it hoping it would do something. I did have to use a bit more air to get a sound but that was expected. I used a decibel meter to measure the sound and from the 105 max I had, it went down to a 95. But I also wasn't trying to match it, I was just playing regularly. 95db is also what the sax measure when I'm playing in my closet playing into the clothes. So it wasn't as effective as that. It gets 2 stars because it might have use to somebody, but in my situation, it doesn't do me much good.

My sales engineer was, and has always, been a great help. He answered my questions about the product and reassured me about the return policy.
