Yamaha Silent Brass review
Published on 06/03/15 at 20:11I bought the Trumpet Silent Brass system in 2003-4. This may not be the same model as the SB7X. The Silent Brass system provides a mute on the projecting qualities of the trumpet. As a practice tool, the Silent Brass is nifty for late practice sessions, apartment dwellers, and last minute hotel preparation.
I only have used my Silent Brass system a few times. The amplifier/headphone setup is pretty cool if you're into that. I used it during late hour practice at our condo, usually just for chop exercises. The model I owned was somewhat "dense" and despite claiming a natural feel, often still felt like the backpressure of a mute.

I give the Silent Brass system 3/5 for personal experience. It's useful if you have the need, not extremely so without. If the SB7X has done away with the tight airflow problem, it earns an automatic 4th star for ingenuity.See less00 - adri199
Very satisfactory
Published on 08/05/12 at 01:17 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I use it a few times since 2 years, it's fine. Good sound but reproduces the Mute "silent brass" is not like other mutes, it blocks a little breath. I have not tried other electric muted trumpet because I offered it at Christmas and I am quite satisfied.00 - honeefPublished on 11/10/07 at 14:11 (This content has been automatically translated from French)For short: a matre purchase if you can not help but play with a mute.
The accuracy, quality and nuances of sound are prserv even if the trumpet sounds less "round" and so (logically) parat sound a little artificial.
Still, I n'embte over my neighbors and I can work even when the trumpet without losing accuracy (which is a risk when playing with a simple Soudine ..)20
