| are you talking about just you playing? because they probably get that metallic buzzing sound because they have more than one person, and thats usually what gives it that sound. so i would think if you had a different selection of instruments then it would probably give it that cool sound | ||

| Get a shallower mouthpiece, it'll make your trumpet sound brighter. Also, try a straight mute or a cup mute. | ||

| A shallower mouthpiece will also help you play a little higher. Don't go for the 14a4a lead mouthpieces with really shallow cups, their tone isn't great, especially in the high register. If you play a 7c; try a 7e, 7ew, or a 5sv, they're a little shallower than the 7c and have about the same cup diameter. | ||
