    Wooden straight was my favorite - because of intonation, clarity of articulation, and sound. Cup closed was my second favorite, though it did sound like it might have been a bit tricky to get a consistent attack across registers. All three are pretty mutes. Thanks for another fun video!

      Thanks, Bart! Yes, that wooden straight is a very nice mute with excellent clarity. Cup closed can be a bit of a challenge if you're looking for a clear and pointed articulation, but the sound is really quite unique.

    very interesting. the cup mute surprised me... it sounds so dark and sweet to my ears.

      I was also surprised by the cup - yes that's also a good way to describe it. To me the wood gives it such a unique character.

    I love the sound of a cup mute. This adjustable wins out to me.
