Improved Sound
The sound from this "
3rd generation
" system has been greatly improved over the previous generations, by using the process called
Brass Resonance Modeling.
This utilizes
three
simultaneous processes to produce the realistic tone of the brass instrument. This unique technology by Yamaha uses the modeling of non-muted brass instruments to correct your instrument’s tone when the Pickup Mute is in place. With a combination of The
Personal Studio
and a
Pickup Mute
, the resulting sound is so realistic, it’s hard to tell whether the instrument is muted, or not.
1.
Eliminate the “Mute” Sound
Digital processing applied to the sound received by the mute’s
microphone effectively cancels the sonic characteristics of the mute.
2. Add Ambience
Another digital process brings back the natural sound of the un-muted instrument, and adds the characteristics of the acoustic environment through which the sound travels before returning to the player’s ears, making it sound as if you are playing without a mute at all.
3. Adjust Left/Right Balance
Digitally simulating how the sound returns to your ears—adjusting for the slight differences in volume, timbre, and delay between your left and right ears—and adding reverb constructs a virtual sound scape that makes it sound like you are playing in a large room or concert hall.
Aux In Jack
This jack allows an external sound source to be combined with the signal coming from the mute, such as an MP3 player, Tablet, Cell phone or CD Player. You can then play along with your favorite song in practice and performance settings, putting the fun back in your practice sessions.

PM1 - PM9 Mutes
ST9
Total compatibility of these systems.
Next came the ST9 & ST5 Modules
that utilized the same Mutes.
The ST7, ST5 & ST9 are all compatible with
all of the PM1-PM9 Mutes.
ST5
STX
Yamaha has now produced the next generation system for Silent Brass using a new technology called
Brass Resonance Modeling™.
The system consist of the STX module (left) and the PM3X-PM7X Mutes (right)
To properly make the Brass Resonance Modeling™ work, it must use the new STX module with any of the new following mutes:
PM3X - PM7X.
You can use the new PM1X and PM2X mutes with the STX module, however, the sound is not as full as with the new STX-2 module.
The (PM3X - PM7X) Mutes can still work with the old modules (ST7, ST5, ST9),
BUT
you will not get full effect of
Brass Resonance Modeling™ technology.
Technically, you do not have to upgrade and buy the new system if you are just wanting to add one of these new mute (pictured to the right) to use with your old module
.
(Yamaha no longer makes the
PM1- PM9 Mutes.)
Currently, Yamaha
is not
selling the STX module separately from the mutes.
You WILL NOT be able to use your old
PM1 - PM9 mutes with this STX module.
PM3X - PM7X
STX-2
Yamaha has now produced an updated module called, STX-2.
All mutes (pictured to the right) our fully compatible with the new STX-2 module.
This new module was needed when the new Tuba and Euphonium system were created.
To properly make the Brass Resonance Modeling™ work, it must use the new STX-2 module with any of the new
PM1X - PM7X Mutes.
The PM3X - PM7X Mutes can still work with the old modules (ST7, ST5, ST9),
BUT
you will not get full effect of
Brass Resonance Modeling™ technology.
When using the new PM1X & PM2X with the old modules (ST7, ST5, ST9) you will find that the sound is there, but a there is lot of buzz. You'll have to turn the volume way down to make it even remotely usable.
Currently, Yamaha
is now
selling the STX-2 module separately from the mutes.
You WILL NOT be able to use your old
PM1 - PM9 mutes with the new STX-2 module.
