Description
The Whisper, currently available for Trumpet/Cornet, creates a professional and unique timbre to contribute to a player’s or brass section’s arsenal of instrument sounds. Durable, lightweight, and high-quality, the Whisper is the perfect mute for your on-stage quiet passages.
What’s different about a Whisper mute? This on-stage version of the acclaimed sshhmute allows more air to escape and thus more sound carries through. It is perfect for performing quiet passages when you really need stability & security and no worries about intonation.
It can still be used as a practice mute when near silence isn’t required.

I have tried multiple mutes before I got my hands on the original sshh mute and the new whisper mute, and I must say that these are now my new favourite practice mutes. The back pressure has always been a problem for me, since I'm mainly a lead-trumpet player and always want to check the upper-register from time to time (not recommended doing that for too long). I've tried the best brass mutes, and even own both generations of the Yamaha Silent-Brass System. They were all good in their own ways, but for me, they always had an issue with weight-balance (sticking too far out of the bell) or having too much back pressure. So much so that playing with a cup/tin mute would seem like the best option at the time. Now I'm finding myself always practising with these things when I'm in my flat. Honestly... these mutes rock, and on top of that, superfast delivery, for something coming from the other side of the world.
Thanks for the mutes and great service!
With kind regards,
