Brass players use mutes to dampen the sound of their instruments.
The main brass instruments that use mutes are trumpets and trombones. Other brass instruments like the tuba are so big and the sound is so deep that they generally don't need to use mutes. French horns also use mutes, but they don't have the same variety since the majority of mutes are used only in Jazz music.
That's correct. Different types of mutes in turn create different types of sounds.
Some brass instruments like trumpets and trombones often use mutes to change the sound of their instrument during some songs (often happens in jazz, normally written into the music). You can buy them, but I know that trombones can actually use toilet plungers (clean of course) as mutes in a pinch. They create a less deep and whole tone, its almost like they take the buzz out of the noise, it's really cool sounding.
Many instruments use a mute. In the string section, mutes are used by violins, violas, and cellos. The mutes serve to make the notes more lyrical rather than softer; however, "hotel-room" mutes are available to reduce the instrument's loudness. Mutes in brass instruments are used in the bell area and change the tone to, say, buzzing. Woodwind mutes are rather rare and in the case of the flute almost unheard of. Percussion instruments often require no special mute as the hand can be used to the same effect. The soft pedal of the piano has a muting result.

Mutes are an addition to the instrument, you put them in at the bell of the horn, the mute has special grips to keep the mute from falling out. There are many different types of mutes that brass instruments can use, each one can cause the horn to have a different sound. In a concert band setting trumpets use straight mutes to get a more softer hummed sounded so the trumpets don't over play the band. In a jazz band setting there are many more different types of mutes that a tempt can use and these mutes are just used to get a nice cool jazzie sound, jazz bands also use toilet plunger to add extreme dynamic contrast.
Mozart was a composer in classical period. By that time, there were no valves and mutes in brass instruments. Therefore they had one playable overtone scale per instrument.

Trumpets and other brass instruments use mutes in order to change the fefect of the sound. The sound goes from very loud, warm and round to much quieter and slightly sharper and squeakier.
Mutes change the sound from your instrument, for example making it more lyrical. The "hotel-room" style mutes are used to make the music quieter.

Goodness no. You can using microphones and special mutes, but usually a good brass player can play loud enough to fill an auditorium with sound.
a jazzaphone is a trumped shaped like the saxophone, with the three valve structure in the vertical piping of the instrument.. at the bell are a selection of mutes, triggered by keys.. these may include the harmon, cup or straight mutes.. hopefully this helps
That would be a mute,
