The basic use of the mute is to alter the sound coming from the instrument.
"Straight mutes" are used for sections in music that require a more nasal sound, and can also be used when a Trumpet player plays Oboe cues when there is no oboe player. "Cup mutes" make the nasal sound of the straight music more mellow, and they often come in the form of a "cup" than attaches to the straight mute. "Bucket mutes" give brass instruments a more mellow sound and can substitute for flugal horns. A substitute for a bucket mute is to play into the music stand. Harmon mutes are generally used to make a "cool" nasal sound and can be used with and without the stem for more options. Plunger mutes are literally the end of a plunger (only the simple type of plunger) used to make the "wa-wa" effect.
If the music just says "mute" it is referring to a straight mute... unless it is Jazz Music, in which case it means a Harmon mute.
