lol. ya its usually trumpet players that can't seem to play soft. I play too. your best bet is that if you don't like the way it sounds, stick a cup mute in. This will hide any weird sounds coming from the trumpet and you won't worry about it every time. After about a week you can switch to a straight mute and the next week try it un-muted. This should help extremely and you should be very pleased with your resonant soft sound. If not, then you should probably just give your trumpet a good cleaning.
Reply:use the little cotton brush, (or whatever its called)stick it into the horn and cleanse it, i had that problem a lot in 6th grade, my music teacher told me to do that all the time
