i play both clarinet and saxophone and i havent had time for two instruments this past month so i mainly focused on clarinet. now i have two major auditions, one on clarinet and one on sax and i need to get back in the sax groove to the way i was playing. is there anyway that the BBoard would reccommend that would work the best? like i said, im very pressed for time. thanks for the advice.

There is no such thing as "getting good quick". As GBK quite rightly says start practising now.

Best to be selective, and have at least one superior audition.
If time is short, and you attempt to muddle through both, your performance may be split (and cost you the gig) between each.
There is no substittute for time behind the horn.

Or maybe you could take on one audition at a time? Not knowing your level of experience or what you're trying for, it's hard to provide any advice.
My own experience is that my sax chops are a lot better while practicing mainly clarinet than my clarinet chops were while practicing mainly sax. Even so, I have to practice everything that I play.
