A "small soundproof room" that can be used anywhere
I bought a practice mute to practice at home, at the edge of the office, and in my spare time. But when I played it, it felt stuck and I couldn't understand the pitch..." I'm sure many of you have had the experience of putting the mute in the back of your desk after all.
There are many muffling mutes available for practice mutes, but no matter how good they are, they cannot avoid "clogging" and "pitch deterioration" due to the structure of the mute that blocks the bell.
This new type of practice mute is based on the concept of "the smallest soundproof room" and greatly improves on the shortcomings of conventional practice mutes. Although it looks large, it is not surprisingly heavy and allows you to practice with a natural blowing feel.It has been thought that there is a trade-off between "open blowing feel" and "muffling performance". However, it is a mute that strikes a perfect balance.
The volume of a standard trumpet is said to be around 100~120dB, and this product can muffle the sound to around 75~85dB. The volume of a standard practice mute is about 70~80dB, so it is a little higher.
Still, with this blowing comfort, you should be able to think, "I don't want to go outside, but I'll practice a little at home. Because what's the point of having a practice mute if you don't feel like practicing?
