Thanks for this! Enlightening, as always! I’m definitely intrigued by the adjustable straight mute. Might have to get one.
Thanks for checking out the vid - it's a cool design and def different from what else is out there.
Nice mutes. I have Soulo , Harmon , St Copper Botton, and fiber Adj cup. All nice. I’m able the match the section leader in our community concert band. He loves the mutes too. I’ve just added the adjustable straight mute to my list. Thanks Josh!
Nice!! I’m sure you’ll dig it, it’s super versatile.
Wise concept indeed !
If that “small ring cup” had a little more open V shape/size, I think it will really make a huge step forward. Congratulations Soulo Mutes & Josh 👏👏👏
Thanks for checking out he vid and your kind words! It has an extremely slight "v" shape to it - it seems to just barely raise from the side of the mute body. That being said, I'd love to see them release some additional/add-on pieces if they provided different tonal colors via new shapes/materials.
Hi Josh,
The small ring is not available in Europe yet. Seems interesting. Does the straight feel in the sound match what TrumCor Lyric achieves ?
Hey Trumpyfilip, sorry I missed this comment before. It's different in color and character, but the ability to play soft with comfort is certainly there when you have it properly adjusted. It's a very versatile mute.
Awesome video... it makes me want to buy all the mutes... but I don't want my wife to divorce me for spending all the money ....🙃
Thank you!! Well these are essential tools of the trade, I’m sure she’ll understand 😂🤣
