I am just learning to play the cornet - A second hand Yamaha YCR-2330ii. Normally I can only practise if the house is empty and the neighbours are out. Now I can practise any time. My progress in a few days has been very good. My only criticism of this device is that the STX-2 battery compartment is a bit flimsy, but that is more than compensated for by the sound that comes through the earphones. I am looking forward now to every lesson with this transformational piece of equipment.
I've been studying trumpet with the Yamaha STX-2 Silent Brass for the second day running, and it's great for practicing all aspect of technique and tone without it being so loud.
But I've found that certain notes are more out off tune than others, I'll have to find a solution to this by maybe taking out/sliding in the main tuning slide, or using the valve slides on notes when I'm not used to using those slides.
But this is only my second day of using the mute and overall I'm very happy with it. The Brass Resonance Modelling and Reverb are sounding very good.
And just like everybody else who has bought the Yamaha STX-2, I'm not using the included earphones but headphones that I already owned.
