To expand on the mute terms:
Muted - open
Con sord. - straight mute
Harmon mute "wah wah" - straight or plunger mute
Cup mute - straight mute, or plunger held 5 inches out from bell
Bucket mute - play almost completely in stand
Play in stand - move bell out of sight of conductor
I also agree with, based on the requests of the conductors I've had:
p - mf
mp - as soft as you can possibly play
f - as loud as you can play
ff - louder than you can play
Muted - open
