The carbon material feels pleasantly warm to the touch, because unlike brass it has very low heat conductivity and does not take heat from your hand. The air column in the instrument behaves in similar fashion, remaining almost at breath temperature regardless of the ambient temperature where you play and regardless of the instrument’s temperature. This reduces the need to re-tune after you have been playing for a while, and also reduces condensation build-up inside the instrument.

Please note: This is a set of two Q-mass screws, both fitting on your tenon from each side of your instrument. Please order the Q-mass SINGLE if you only want one Q-mass. As sound travels through solid objects, it's causing it to resonate. Yes, sound does travel trhough solid objects. Your saxophone body contributes to the sound, believe it or not. In fact, sound travels about 14x faster though brass than through air. While the concept of the Q-mass may not be new, it is an innovation in the sense that it passes along the vibrations that originate in the neck, to the body by adding weight to the screw that holds the tenon into the body. The existing link between body and tenon is far from ideal in most cases; in fact any connection may impair the transmission of vibrations that contribute to sound. If this is a weak spot, your sound will be affected in a negative way. The oscillating air column in the instrument body may be impaired, too (we haven't be able to prove this, though). The connection between neck and body is enhanced by the Q-mass and aims to eliminate these negative effects. You could also apply the Q-mass on the body-to-bow section (contact us as we can provide you with the best solutions based on your brand). Sure, we also had doubts about adding weight to a screw on a ring that embraces the tenon of the saxophone neck. However, after a year of testing and development we've decided to bring the Q-mass to market, making it available for saxophone and trumpet. Musicians that have tested the Q-mass are thrilled and have made it part of their go-to setup. The Q-mass may appear to be simple, but can make a world of difference once in place! Allard Buwalda, Jan Menu and many others are convinced. The Q-mass replaces the standard screw. Made to order for almost all brands. Please try before judging. Your brand not listed?

Sax Volume Reducer – For Alto, Tenor, Soprano and Baritone Saxophones The ideal solution for saxophone players who want to temper their volume without losing the core of their sound. This volume reducer decreases sound levels by approximately 10 to 15 decibels, making it perfect for practicing in apartments where quieter surroundings are desired or in shared environments. The Sax Volume Reducer works by filtering out the lower frequencies, which travel the furthest, from the saxophone's sound. This allows you to retain a rich and full tone with significantly reduced low frequencies. An additional feature of the volume reducer is that the sound will appear slightly less "open" compared to playing without it. This means a slight dampening of resonance occurs, reducing the brightness of your sound. However, the natural tone and character of your saxophone remain intact. One trade-off with this product is that lower notes, particularly B and Bb, are less responsive. This is a small compromise for the benefit of reduced sound levels but is something saxophone players should keep in mind when using the Sax Volume Reducer. While the saxophone cannot be made completely silent due to sound escaping through the tone holes, we have designed the Sax Volume Reducer for maximum sound reduction without causing significant disruption to the intonation of the lower notes. With its 3D-printed construction and use of high-quality materials, this volume reducer offers an excellent balance of sound dampening and tonal preservation. The reducer is compact, durable, and easy to carry, allowing you to practice anywhere—whether at home or on the go.
Benefits of the Sax Volume Reducer:
- 10 to 15 Decibel Volume Reduction: Effectively lowers the volume while preserving sound quality.
- Tone Preservation with a Less "Open" Sound: Produces a slightly less open tone while maintaining the natural sound of your saxophone.
- Optimal Resonance: 3D-printed with premium materials for superior dampening and resonance.
- Durable and Portable: Easy to transport, ideal for quiet practice sessions anywhere.
