+1 Been asking for this one since last decade, give or take a Tuesday!

The muted trumpet sounds really good in many of the "horn sections". Now we need some soloists s well. A muted trombone might be cool too.
You could help out PG Music if you specified the type of mute, or provided a sound clip. As a trumpet player, I have at least six mutes I use all the time, and a few other oddballs. I’m guessing you probably want a Harmon with no stem, or a cup mute. Maybe a plunger for Dixieland etc.

Well, I was looking for the sound for a ballad. When I think of trumpeters with muted I immediately think of Miles but I’m kind of working on a sort of new age / smooth jazz thing. Chris Botti comes to mind. I’m not really a big fan of this type of music but I find myself doing more and more. And yes I think it’s a harmon mute.
Blues1952, I wonder if you are old enough to remember the underrated trumpeter Jonah Jones. He had the smoothest ballad sound I ever heard, on cup mute.
Note to Tobin (hi): I use a harmon (no stem) for an occasional song, but it's much harder to play for longer periods than a cup or certain other mutes. And, if I'm doing the solo chair in a big band, forget it unless I am very close mic'ed. Cup mute is my go-to for ballads.

+1 Here is an example I like, the more "metallic" the better.
PS> Nice work Mario, it's been years since I've listened to Wonderland By Night.

FWIW here is another example pleasing to my ears. No apologies . . . this is what I call "heavy metal"

As for trombone, I like trombone but not so much muted. When Frank Sinatra played with him Tommy Dorsey used to start every song with a fairly long muted trumpet solo. I was so happy when fast forward began.
