Description
The Syos Steady is a pre-designed, versatile saxophone mouthpiece from the Syos Originals line, specifically engineered for a balanced sound that bridges the gap between dark and bright tones. It is marketed as an “all-rounder” suitable for nearly any genre, including jazz, pop, rock, and funk.
Key Performance Features
- Tonal Balance: Designed with a medium chamber and a medium step/curved baffle, providing a mix of depth, core, and projection.
- Ease of Play: It is noted for being highly “free-blowing” and responsive across all registers, making it accessible for both beginners and professionals.
- High Versatility: The design allows players to transition easily between soft jazz ballads and more powerful, energetic styles like funk.
- 3D Printed Precision: Manufactured in Paris using advanced 3D printing technology with proprietary SCAL3D (or ABS) material, ensuring consistent quality and high durability.
Comparison within the Originals Line
The “Steady” is the middle-ground option in a three-model range:
- Smoky: Focused on warm, dark, and round tones.
- Steady: The balanced and flexible choice for versatility.
- Spark: Designed for maximum power, brightness, and projection.
Available Models and Pricing
The Steady model is available for the entire saxophone family and B-flat/Bass clarinet. It typically retails for approximately $203 – $205 USD depending on the specific instrument and retailer. Note that ligatures and caps are generally not included but can be purchased separately.
Technical Specifications
Details on chamber size, baffle type, and material used in the Steady model.
The internal geometry of the Steady mouthpiece is specifically calculated to provide a focused yet flexible tone:
- Baffle: Features a medium step or curved rollover baffle, which provides more edge than the Smoky model but less than the Spark.
- Chamber: Utilizes a medium to large chamber (depending on the instrument type) to maintain resonance and a full-bodied sound.
- Material: Made from UPSCAL3D, a proprietary food-grade material developed by Syos that mimics the density of hard rubber without toxic components.
- Customization: While the internal geometry is fixed, users can choose from various colors and tip openings (e.g., 5, 6, 7, 8) to suit their preference.
