The prices of a real saxophone can be from 2,000 USD to 10,000 USD depending on the shape and sizes, the good news from a music production perspective is that you don’t have to invest in actually buying a real saxophone as there are lots of virtual saxophone instrument which I’ll be recommending you to some of the best free ones shortly.

A saxophone instrument can be used across most genres of music from classical music to Jazz to marching bands, and anything you can think of as long as you are creative. I occasionally use it when making afro beats. That said, let’s see some of the best free saxophone VST plugins in the music production right now.
Starting with…
1.) DVS Saxophone
DVS sax was the first free virtual saxophone I ever tried and my first impression was the way you could fiddle intuitively with the parameters and create an unimaginable saxophone sounds. The author of this plugin pays careful attention to the way the velocity and the pitch bend effect compliment the current key you are holding onto or playing.

Additionally, DVS saxophone provides built-in reverb effects, an option to change the size of the sax and lastly the level knob. One feature I can’t do without is the auto-vibrato, it’s absolutely amazing, give it a try.
System Requirements:
SaxLab 2 Saxophone Synthesizer is the result of many years of investigation and programming. It uses not one technology but a very carefully balanced mixture of various techniques to obtain the most realistic sax sound you can get from a virtual instrument. Authenticity, Expression and Variation is a must to obtain believable sax sounds.
- Windows: Windows 7/8/10.
- VST
2.) DSK Saxophone
This is a free saxophone VST instrument from DSK that provides an option to select a saxophone type such as the Soprano and Tenor. It also features an ADSR envelope control, which describes how the saxophone sound changes over time.
An explanation on how the ADSR(Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release) works:
- Well, the evidence by the demos for the Sax libraries at Samplemodeling seems to bely that. Most of us are not going to go to that extent. I will say this, I have their Mr T tenor sax (from the Kontakt days) and I have hired a professional (actually super-virtuoso) saxophonist who did something (soprano) I don't imagine anybody is going to suss with their or any other library (I actually rely.

- This Collection offers the complete saxophones family. The performance algorithms of the included Vienna Instruments player work wonders with these samples. The focus has been directed equally to orchestral settings as well as to jazz.
The Attack controls the time it takes for your sound to go from silent to the loudest levels, Decay time control how long or the time it takes to go from the loudest level to the sustain level, Sustain is the level that the sax maintains when you hold a note, and Release control how long it takes the Sax sound to return the silence after a key is released.
I personally love setting a longer release, that way, it takes some time for the sax sound to fade away, of course, play with the settings yourself.
Additionally, it features a velocity curve selector and an inbuilt reverb fx for simulating the ambiance in a recording room.
System Requirements:
- Available for Windows and Mac (32 and 64 bits)
- VST/AU

Saxi player is a free saxophone by Naokit and provides 3 types of saxophone sound such as Soprano, Alto & Tenor Sax. Also, it comes with some handy parameters and effects such as Reverb, Attack/Release control, Tangling control, Expression, Vibrato and more.
I would be honest with you, I had some issue getting this to work, for example, you can’t hold two notes together, probably because it supports only monophonic sound, so, the way to fix this is to play one note at a time or render different notes and stack them on top of each other, feel free to experiment with it, at least, it is free, thus we should appreciate that.

Square i vst download. Only works on Windows (32-bit)
