Not so much a Mute!

Carly4 09.05.2019

Used to change the tone of the sound rather than used as a mute, it comes with a small note to sand the cork down for custom fit in the bell. This does not have to be done of course it sits in the bell just fine. We went for this instead of he Dennis Wick as it claimed to have a better tone and intonation with recommendation from an orchestra. The red label indicates it is slightly larger that the standard Tom Crown Mute and it gives a warmer sound, it works for us regardless and is one of the must have mutes in the bag. All good!

Wish I bought it sooner

Bart Vaes 05.02.2024

I don't know where to begin; I'm used to playing DW brand just because everybody I know uses those. Now I have this Tom Crown Gemini and I don't see myself using any other straight mute for a long time coming.
It fits very well so the mutes' bottom doesn't touch the trumpet bell. Response in all registers is very good. Much better pitch and control - esp. in lower register. Build quality: no complaints after a few months of usage...
They do tend to be a bit louder than I'm used to so it took a bit of adjusting when playing soft parts. All in all, worth every cent !

sehr guter, frei spielender Dämpfer

Julian aus Z. 30.03.2020

Diesen Dämpfer benutze ich im Orchester, wenn es trotz Dämpfer laut und durchdringend sein soll.
Dieser Dämpfer ist sehr gut verarbeitet, die Korken halten bisher sehr gut und sie sind recht dick, so dass der Dämpfer auch gut in Drehventiltrompeten passt. Der Klang ist recht laut, die Ansprache sehr gut, die Intonation im Grunde wie ohne Dämpfer. Das Spielgefühl ist sehr frei.
Die Klangfarbe ist immer noch formbar und reicht von rund und warm (insbesondere in der Tiefen Lage einfach, dort auch prima Intonation), bis kernig und "mit Kante", wenn man laut spielt, aber nie klirrend sondern immer zentriert und das durch den ganzen Tonbereich.

Beau son pour une belle sourdine

thomasbkd 13.02.2023

Achetée sur les conseils d'un collègue pour améliorer le rendu sonore de mes solos avec sourdine en brass-band, la Tom Crown Gemini a un son de sourdine sèche tout en conservant la chaleur, le volume et la justesse de l'instrument, notamment grâce à sa base cuivrée. Une vraie sourdine pour jouer seul ou en ensemble !
