Someone correct me if im wrong, but i believe a resonator is meant to cut out excessive exhaust noise, and a muffler is meant to cut down on emissions on top of noise

I always thought it was the other way around, the resonater/catolytic converter cuts down on emissions and the muffler muffles the sound.
