 Nice Practice tool Jul 18, 2005
By A. Richardson
This thing is great if you need to practice without bothering folks in the next room. I used this quite a bit in college. The echo effects are fun to play around with and the pickup doesn't distort tone as much as I had anticipated. This device produces a lot more back pressure than advertised; just a little more free blowing than say a strait mute. The times where silent brass comes in most handy is practicing with a canned track. This is easily one of the most useful tools for the modern trumpet player.

Awesome May 24, 2006
By Microbiologist, RN, and perpetual student.

Quiter than most mutes by far, the Silent Brass System rocks!
Backpressure? I'm not sure what everyone's talking about! I've never noticed backpressure using a regular mute, and this one, to me, feels the same... that is the same as no mute at all.
A great item for the college music major, or for the trumpet player who lives close to others (apartments)!
Worth the money I spent!
Enjoy

not a neighborhood spectacle Mar 04, 2007
By Dean Booth
I played the trumpet in high school, a long time ago. I wanted to pick it up again but I wasn't going to share my practice sessions with the neighborhood. I gave the silent system a try and it works great. It isn't 'silent' but my wife can't hear me downstairs and nobody can hear me outside. For the cost of a few lessons you can practice whenever you want without bothering anyone.

 Good, but not quite there. Apr 01, 2007
By Alex Lopilato
The overall design of the silent mute is pretty awesome. The sound quality is pretty good, some distortion. What bothers me about the mute, and makes me not want to practice with it everyday is the back pressure. For someone to say there is no back pressure, they are absolutely wrong. It does not allow the response necessary to play the most delicate pieces. Because of the back pressure, it is hard to get a good indication of how well I am playing. I know that I am supposed to expect back pressure, but not being able to play certain things because of it really takes away from this. I would recommend this for practice on trips like in hotels, but not to substitute for everyday practice.

Awesome Silencer! Mar 12, 2008
By James Kozak
This mute ROCKS!! I just started playing trumpet again after 10 years away. Unfortunately I am currently deployed to Iraq and living in close quarter to other people. Paper thin is just not good enough a description for our walls.
As with any mute there is some resistance and weight added to your horn while using this, but only a little. If you need to practice in an area that you cannot be loud, this is the product for you. I am very confident that I could use this mute in the room next to a very light sleeper, with the interconnecting doors open and still not wake them.
The other day I was practicing in my office, sometimes I get more privacy there than in my room, and the attorney whose office door is 12 feet from mine did not even know I was playing. BOTH OF OUR DOORS WERE OPEN! We were the only ones in an otherwise empty building so I know it was not a matter of hiding behind ambient noise. I cannot say enough about this mute!
