MUTE TUBE - FEEL THE REAL SOUND
PRACTISING AND RECORDING SOUND ABSORBER FOR TRUMPET AND FLUGELHORN
MUTE TUBE is a practical soundproofing unit for at home or in the studio.
Special acoustic layers in relation to the air volume of the tube offers an excellent sound level reduction by more than 25 dB. As opposed to conventional practice mutes with a high resistance at the mouthpiece , MUTE TUBE is based on the concept of sound absorption, which ensures a free airflow through the instrument combined with pure response and intonation.
Thanks to the MUTE TUBE, it is possible to play, practice or record music freely without disturbing your family and neighbours.

The functioning of Mute-Tube is based on the concept of sound absorption.
Two stages of special acoustic layers in the interior in relation to the air volume of the tube achieve a high degree of damping and offers an enjoyable playing.
What is new in MUTE TUBE is that the musical instrument is inserted into the absorption unit. The depth of trumpet position should be approximately 10-20 cm in order to achieve an optimum sound absorption.
The sound reflected by MUTE TUBE is significantly reduced and creates a pleasant indoor atmosphere. The music can hardly be heard in the neighbouring rooms. But the sound experience remains unchanged for the musician. A free airflow through the instrument provides an enjoyable playing experience.
4 TIMES VOLUME MINIMISATION!
Thanks to excellent sound absorption of the mute tube, the sound level of the trumpet/flugelhorn can be reduced by more than 25 dB.
The average volume level if played muted is 60 - 70 dB. The trumpet volume unmuted reach considerably above 90 dB.
In many cases, good sound absorption is necessary for an undisturbed practice. With excellent acoustic properties, mute tube is a considerably cheaper alternative to expensive soundproof cabins.
A 3-pin microphone jack (XLR/Female) is located at the lower end and at the underside of the interior of the model mute tube professional for directly plug in your microphone. On the outside, the microphone jack (XLR / male) can easily be connected to any XLR microphone cable.
In the following Soundcloud-links you can listen to short trumpet tracks, recorded inside the Mute Tube with several microphone types.

The following video shows an application of a trumpet track (recorded with Mute Tube) in a band project:
The tube can be adjusted to the appropriate playing position with simple adjusting screws on the stand (height) and inclination adapter (angle). The volume reduction increases with the depth of trumpet position inside the tube. That means the deeper the trumpet is played in the tube, the quieter the reflected sound.
A music holder can be screwed on top of the unit.
The MUTE TUBE can be mounted or dismounted in seconds and can be stowed in any corner with a size of ∅32 x 50 cm
Made of steel in combination with a high-gloss finish makes the unit a high-quality piece of furniture.
