François Couture of AllMusic called Say No More "a classic" and "the border between free improvisation and musique concrete will never be the same." [8] Musicworks gave the album a positive review, saying "the practice of sampling sounds creates its own contextual questions, of course, and those posed by Bob Ostertag were the most puzzling." [9]
