I am just starting to learn how to play saxophone. Will I get a noise complaint within the next 3 months?

Recordings from my second day of practice (Feb 11th 2024):
Saxophone Day 2 - All Recordings
Excerpt of the best "performance" selected from the full recordings above:
Saxophone Day 2 - Best

I live in an apartment complex in Seattle. I just started playing on Feb 10th 2024. Previous to this, I did borrow a friends saxophone in 2015 for a couple months. I plan on practicing around 2-3 times a week. I generally plan on practicing between the hours of 8am-10pm.

Noise insulation in the complex seems decent. I can hear thuds and bumps and the occasional creak through the walls. I can hear voices in the hallway through my front door and voices in the courtyard through my window (even when closed). I have often played electric guitar during the middle of the night at moderate volume (imagine watching tv at moderate volume) and have not gotten any complaints. The saxophone is louder than that.

Resolves "YES" if I get a noise complaint from the leasing office, the police, or someone knocks on my door asking me to be quiet. Otherwise, resolves "NO" on April 11th 2024.

Not quite exactly the outcome I listed, but I got some upset pounding on the wall, so I have resolved this market to YES

@dreev Were you the one who complained?

@Astralarya my condolences to all the NOs

@bohaska ha no, I made the noob mistake of talking about what happened before resolving the market. Insider trading...

Yes.

bought Ṁ10 NO

this is so cute actually, i started listening to the recording and forgot to turn it off. it's already weirdly soothing and will probably only get better?? i guess it depends on how long each practice session lasts but if it's during reasonable hours you might be good... <_<

Thank you @dreev for the hilarious banner image

bought Ṁ5 NO

i once lived near someone playing the saxophone. i always found it pretty cool when they started playing it for half an hour every few days. granted, it was a skilled player and in another building. but still.

@Symmetry I am definitely not a skilled player 😂

@Astralarya you will get there, im sure!
