There are mute-like devices you can put into the bell of a trumpet, then you listen via headphones. There are also "cases" which you place over a saxophone for the same reason. Never tried either ... and they look expensive :) Another, quite serious suggestion, is to learn to play quietly .... it will make an improvement on your technique. -- **** Listen to my CD at http://www.mellowood.ca/music/cedars **** Bob van der Poel ** Wynndel, British Columbia, CANADA ** EMAIL: bob@xxxxxxxxxxxx WWW: http://www.mellowood.ca _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
