What is a "mute"?
A mute is a device used to reduce the volume or alter the tone of a musical instrument. It is commonly used with brass and string instruments, such as trumpets, trombones, and violins. The mute is placed on or near the instrument's bell or strings to dampen the sound, producing a quieter or softer tone. This can be useful for achieving a specific sound effect, blending in with other instruments, or playing at a lower volume in various musical contexts.
