Yamaha SB1J SILENT Brass™ System for Tuba
Practice through headphones with Yamaha's next generation SILENT Brass™ system. Play where and when you want without disturbing friends and family!
The SILENT Brass™ SB1J system for Tuba consists of a PM1X Pickup Mute™, and the STJ Personal Studio™, which features Yamaha’s exclusive Brass Resonance Modelling™.
Used together, the two deliver the natural acoustic tone you hear when playing without a mute, making it feel as though you are playing mute free.
Features:
Silent Brass Pickup Mute™
The Pickup Mute™ combines a high-performance mute with an internal microphone to pick up sound. Significantly smaller and lighter than previous versions, the mute offers superior muting performance, delivers excellent intonation over a wide pitch range, and natural playability.
Please note that the Pickup Mute may not fit some instruments with significantly different bell shapes or bell diameters. Please check before purchasing.
Brass Resonance Modelling
The Silent Brass Personal Studio™ module features Yamaha's unique Brass Resonance Modelling™ technology, which recreates the sound of non-muted brass instruments to correct your instrument’s tone when the Silent Brass Pickup Mute is in place. The resulting sound is so realistic, it’s virtually indistinguishable from the un-muted tone.
