With the introduction of Trumcor's latest offering, The Zinger, everything you thought impossible in a harmon-style mute has now become a reality. Pitch, articulation, slotting, comprehensive range, dynamic projection, and a beautiful sound are now all part of the harmon-style mute dialogue. Trumcor's overriding philosophy of uncompromised playability has been elemental in the four-year development of the Zinger!. We began from scratch to develop solutions in design and manufacturing techniques to create a mute with unlimited performance potential. The Zinger! allows the performer to experience complete freedom of expression and technique throughout the dynamic and tonal range of the trumpet, all while maintaining a consistent pitch center.
