Trumpet Mutes Part I: The 5 Most Common Mutes (Straight, Cup, Bucket, Harmon, Plunger)

2:01 is a low pass filter

There’s also the Yamaha silent brass system if you’re willing to spend some money on it. Its got to be my favorite musical device ever! It’s an electronic practice mute that makes your trumpet much quieter for practice, yes, but the main draw is that it also comes with a device that is connected to the mute and has headphone jacks. Lets you hear the trumpet as though you were in a concert hall without bothering anyone around you. (Plus it comes with a cool studio program you can use with an ipad or a computer!)

Great explaination! Love everything about big band horns and you just gave the game on it!

[@matthewtickle1670]

love the demo of how to remove the straight mute...we've all done it once (or twice)

[@lenzotrumpet]

What do you mean ? I don't understand ?

[@realtylerlash]

@@lenzotrumpet the straight mute falls out when he puts down the trumpet at 2:47

[@ibrajimenez2098]

I'm just here to know which one to get to not get kicked out of my apartment

[@thefatass500]

If you go over to part 2, he talks about the practice mute. As the name suggests, it's obviously not for performance, but it'll work for your purposes.

I agree with thefatass500 (great name), a mute shouldn't actually dampen the volume, just change the timbre. Definitely go for a practice mute for what you need.

[@vitorfireman3054]

But besides that great play heheheheh, been playing guitar harmonica and singing for 10 years, decided to pickup the trumpet month ago you helped a lot

[@Pianophilia36]

Thank you sir! Great video

[@DaniMustangMeazzi]

You're right but that on the Moog is a low pass filter btw (not high pass). Great vid anyway!

[@cfdemoor]

Plunger mute sounds great!

[@IndianOutlaw1870]

The Divitt Practice Mute has been getting a lot of "buzz." Too bad they are always sold out.

[@RidgewoodSchoolofMusic]

Good to know! It's hard to find a good practice mute.

[@SchokokuchenLP123]

11:36 I'm always thinking of Peter Gunn Theme from the Blues Brothers, when you are playing this lick :P! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3XKd4Kpethgoac (at 1 : 48)

[@DaleCandela-x8m]

And what do you think about the Mute Tube for practicing the trumpet? kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5TNk3tqe8ecptk
