Pampet Lightweight Practice Trumpet Mute Silencer，Trumpet Straight Mute (Black)

My son started playing the trumpet this year, and boy that sucker can get loud. Once we figured out how much he enjoyed playing and how good he was getting at it, I figured it was time to invest in something that helps to mute the music. This guy works great. It is well priced, seems well made, easy to clean, and fits the trumpet well. Most importantly, though, it works! I know this can be used for actual playing purposes as well, but for now, it fits our needs perfectly

I am a professional trumpet player and teacher. I own MANY different practice mutes and was never happy with any... until now. Some cost $100 or more, including Yamaha Silent Brass and a copy of the Best Brass (Protec Liberty) and a few others whose names I can't remember. I've always hated playing with practice mutes as the "blow" is so much different that other than helping to keep my "chops" in shape I have avoided using them as much as possible. I was at one of my student's homes earlier and saw this mute sitting on a nearby table. It looked curious. "Pampet"? Never heard of it. I popped it in my horn and was really surprised at how little back-pressure it produced. I was carrying a Best Brass copy and popped it in for comparison. No contest. The Pampet was only slightly louder than the the Protec Liberty but MUCH easier to play. I HAD to order one which I did immediately. This mute is made out of some sort of plastic but feels like it has different densities throughout. It comes in a fancy box and wrapped in a velvet bag, much like Crown Royal whiskey(?). I couldn't help but think the bag cost more to make than the must. The front of the mute has a plastic piece that looks like a large plastic washer. I have no idea of the physics of it, but not only does it quiet the trumpet to very low levels I can feel the vibration of the horn in my hand! I've never experienced that before. My first test was about 8:30pm at home where my grandson was asleep. My daughter often shushes me if I talk in a normal voice which is often stifling (I won't get into that). Without saying a word, I took my trumpet and mute to the basement and played for a few minutes then came back up. My wife, daughter an son-in-law were on the couch on the first floor, right above where I was playing. Not a word about my playing. They didn't even know. A lot of players don't get enough practice time in because they work or go to school and they don't have a secluded place to practice away from family. I think this mute is a game changer. For people like me who need both free blowing and good tactile resonse this mute can ge a godsend. From a practical purpose I don't think you'll find a better practice mute at any price, except for the 2nd generation Yamaha Silent Brass for $150-$200.

After searching amazon for as many mutes I can this is the only version that truly works as a silenced mute in terms of lowering sound of your trumpet. It tends to fallout more times than comfortable but in terms of price, usability and quality this is the only choice for you if you want to lower your volume to stop complaining neighbors/roomates. It's also a plus being able to have different colors is a plus.

I bought this for my 7th-grader so it's easier for him to play his trumpet during band class while on Zoom, while the rest of the family is also schooling or working from home! Without a mute, it's really impossible to play a trumpet "quietly". This practice mute snuffs the volume right out. There's a little bit of back pressure, so it does feel somewhat different to play. (I played trumpet back in the day, so I tried it out too.) But it is extremely quiet! You can blow your horn as hard as you want and it's hardly audible, especially from another room. And since there's a time delay over Zoom, the kids who are at home are not transmitting audio anyway, so this trumpet mute works out perfectly. You can even hold it up to your mouth and scream into it, and the sound vanishes. Another useful feature while everyone in the family is home together during the pandemic. Construction is good and I'm definitely happy with the purchase. So is my son.

I got this to practice at night while my kids are sleeping. It does its job well in the sense that it makes the trumpet almost silent. However, I believe it really throws off the pressure needed to hit certain notes and if used too frequently could mess up that muscle memory needed to play the trumpet well and accurately. That said, it does largely work for my needs because I’m just hammering out meaningless notes to try and build my chops up. And I’m able to do that pretty silently so that’s a win. When I go to practice the song I will be performing instead of drills, I won’t be able to use it.

Works will with both of my son's trumpets

I spent fifty dollars for a practice mute which I still have and like very much. I saw this mute in red with a very inexpensive price and had to see how it works. It’s great! Smaller, lighter, just as quiet, good pitch, and easy to find with its bright red color. I like the bag for storage in my case. Good quality at a super price!

Glad we invested in this. Love listening to our child play almost all the time. Definitely makes it quiet.

Amazonでこちらの商品が売上1位だったので自宅練習用に買いましたが、作りはプラスチック製でとても安っぽく、吹いてる時に外れないかが少し不安です。 吹奏時は抵抗感、息量は勿論やや加わりますがその分しっかり減音されます。 生鳴りのアコースティックギターから生鳴りのエレキギター程度にしっかり減音されるので、夜中の練習でも通常使用出来ます。

I've tried other practice mutes that had much more back pressure. This one suppresses the sound great and is easier to play.

Bester Übungsdämpfer für Trompete, hat sehr wenig Widerstand, Spielgefühl annähernd wie ohne Dämpfer, dämpft aber sehr stark, besser als die üblichen , sonst erhältlichen Dämpfer !

軽くてコンパクト。 しっかり音を抑えることができています。

This mute came recommended for my bugle and didn't disappoint. A excellent piece of equipment at a good price. Made it possible to practice at home without annoying the neighbours.
