The trumpet is one of the most versatile instruments in the world, capable of producing a wide range of sounds. Among the most distinctive of these is the sound of the harmon mute trumpet. This type of trumpet uses a mute, or dampener, to change the way the air flows through the instrument.

This makes it an ideal choice for any music producer or media composer looking to add a touch of class and soulfulness to their work. So if you’re looking to add something special to your next project, consider reaching for a muted trumpet. You might just be surprised by what you can achieve.

Yes, the Trumpets do sound life-like. They have a wide range of dynamics, and they are perfect for creating stirring themes. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to write film music.
We use a midi keyboard to compose and play trumpets. When compared to how they’d sound note to note on a real trumpet, the way the keys are depressed on the piano keyboard creates an intonation difference. Spitfire Audio prepares their ABBEY ROAD ONE: THEMATIC TRUMPETS to compensate it.
