Yamaha SB6J Silent Brass system for flugelhorn
Product information "Yamaha SB6J Silent Brass system for flugelhorn"
The current generation of Yamaha Silent Brass "J" offers more playing pleasure anytime, anywhere.
The Silent Brass system consists of a lighter mute with an almost natural breath resistance and the Personal Studio STJ. Together these two components reproduce the natural sound of the instrument as if you were playing without a mute.
The improved Personal Studio STJ now features new reverb and graduated hall effects, Player/Audience mode, USB connectivity, enhanced Brass Resonance Modeling, and support for Yamaha's new Rac-n-Share APP. The new sound unit also enables a simple solution for online lessons via connection to a computer or smartphone.
The remarkably light and compact Silent Brass mute system reduces volume impressively. Intonation stays stable across all registers. The playing feel is excellent thanks to optimal airflow and an almost natural breath resistance.
Specially designed mini microphone
To make full use of the optimised Brass Resonance Modeling technology, the microphone’s performance and mounting position, as well as the shape of the mute, have been optimised.
Yamaha Silent Brass
The current generation of Yamaha's Silent Brass system offers more playing pleasure anytime, anywhere. The system consists of a smaller, lighter mute with an almost natural breath resistance and the Personal Studio (signal converter), which features Yamaha’s exclusive Brass Resonance Modeling technology.
The innovative Brass Resonance Modeling technology takes muted playing to a whole new level, giving the player an authentic and natural playing experience. The sound is picked up by the microphone in the mute and converted by Brass Resonance Modeling into the sound that would normally emerge from the bell without a mute, and is delivered to the player via headphones as if no mute were being used.

Yamaha or A Company That Makes Everything. In fact, you could probably list faster what Yamaha does not make. The Japan-based company, active for over 125 years, is the all-rounder among instrument manufacturers. Having started as a maker of pianos, grand pianos and even wooden furniture, the range was soon expanded considerably: Yamaha now offers keyboards, string instruments, woodwinds, drums and percussion as well as PA and studio equipment. For example, youll find steel-string acoustic guitars, electric guitars, electric basses, the popular PSR keyboards, acoustic drumkits and e-drum sets, flutes and saxophones for beginners and intermediates, as well as the popular Clavinova CLP-700 digital pianos and entertainer keyboards like the Genos or the synthesiser Yamaha MX49, plus PA equipment and studio monitors for professional needs. In any case, you can always rely on Yamaha for excellent value for money.
