Hi, I need a practice mute when I haven't any other choice than practice in my appartment.

I don't look about the quietest but the most free blowing.

What do you recommand?

Thank you

I have the Silent Brass and a Humes and Berg practice mute.  The H&B is more free blowing.  The Silent Brass is good if you want to play with electronics while muted.  For just a practice mute I'd go with the H&B.  Its cheaper too.   Image

The Bremner is by far the most free blowing practice mute I have tried...(and now own).  There are lots of discussions here on the forum.

The Bremner is great but big.
The Best Brass is great and small.

I use a Liberty (Protec) for bass.  Also great; I think it was inspired by the Best Brass.
