This is kind of unrelated, but i remember a horn player telling me about a custom mute he made in order to perform those loud, low and menacing "cuivre" notes in the finale of Tchaik 6. IIRC, it was a straight mute with a bunch of holes punched into it. I've always wondered how widespread this practice is.
