【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

An industry first! Equipped with a silencer capsule mechanism. 3 types of capsules can be swapped to provide various functions with one mute. Practice with the silencer function tailored to your environment.
Wide range of colors! Choose your favorite mute from 6 different colors.
The size allows you to store the bell, making it convenient to carry around! (Note: Depending on the shape of the bell and the case, it may not be possible to store it.)
Ultra-lightweight and strong! The special structure that can only be achieved with a 3D printer makes it both lightweight and strong.
Specialized sound-reducing capsule: This type of capsule has a high sound-reducing effect, making it as quiet as a person talking. Although it has a strong resistance when playing, it has such a high sound-reducing effect that you won't be able to hear someone practicing in the next room unless you pay close attention.
Specialized playing feel capsule: A capsule designed to reduce resistance when playing. While the sound-dampening effect is modest, it provides a playing feel similar to that of playing without a mute, making it ideal for lunchtime practice sessions where you don't have to worry about disturbing your neighbors.
Tone-specialized capsule: A capsule filled with sponge to minimize changes in tone across the entire range. It also has just the right amount of resistance, making it easy to play in the lower register.

QooMute for brass players offers a variety of features not found in previous practice mutes. An industry first! By switching between three different silencer capsules, you can practice with silencer functionality tailored to your environment.
