What is the different slide trombone valve trombone?
A lot. Although they look similar they are played differently. The main difference is the mechanism used to create the notes/pitches. The valve trombone is basically a baritone horn in the shape of a trombone. It uses a combination of 3 valves like a trumpet to generate the different pitches by the vibration of the player's lips in the mouth piece and the combination of valves pressed down. A slide trombone uses a slide to change the wave length of the ptich combined with the vibration of the player's lips in the mouthpiece. Notes or pitches rely upon sound waves. To change pitch you change the length of the sound wave. The valve trombone uses valves to chnages the course of the air producing the sound wave to lengthen it or shorten it. The slide trombone does this by moving the slide up or down.
Can a Trombone have valves?
Yes. There is an instrument called a "valve trombone", which basically looks like a trombone except that the slide doesn't move and there are three valves near the mouthpiece that look a lot like trumpet valves. In fact, trumpet players are often asked to play valve trombone in middle and high school jazz bands when no regular trombone players are around to fill the seat. This is possible because the fingerings on a valve trombone are exactly the same as those on a trumpet. Some trombone players, me included, find the valve trombone to have a somewhat flatter (tone, not pitch) sound than a traditional trombone. However, a good enough musician can easily achieve a beautiful sound on a valve trombone. Additionally, there is a horn called a marching trombone that also three valves. It is similar to a baritone, but the tubing length and bore sizes are closer to those of a trombone.
Which brass instrument other than trombone was once made with a slide?
There is no other instrument other than the Trombone with a slide. There are variations of the trombone though. For example, there is a trombone made with a slide and valves. There are also different types of trombones. There is the bass trombone, tenor trombone, alto trombone, soprano trombone (slide Trumpet), and piccolo trombone. (Please note that the soprano trombone, or slide trumpet, does not have valves. It is also called a slide trumpet because it has the same exact range, sounds like a trumpet, and uses a trumpet mouth piece.) There has also been plastic, wooden, and metal trombones made. I hope that this helped!

How the slide of a trombone changes the pitch of sound?
The pitch is changed on a Trombone by moving the slide or changing your ombisture.
G bass trombone slide positions?
g is in fifth position
How do you finger a trombone?
You finger with positions. First position is not moving it at all. Third is just before the bell. Second is in the middle of those with just about an inch of the inner slide showing. Fourth is just after the bell, about the same as third is before. Sixth is aboutas far as a kid could reach, sevenths further and fifth is between fourth and sixth. Bb valve brass equivalence:1st position=open 2nd=2nd valve 3rd=1st valve 4th=1+2 or just 3rd valve 5th=2+3 6th=1+3 7th=1+2+3...Believe me these are the right translations, the second valve is shortest. slide= the slidable section of a trombone. Bell=the place on most wind instruments where sound comes out position=the location of a slide to make a sound. By the way trombone can get more notes by putting notes between positions, such as the highest G,played a little before the second position.
What is the bass trombone?
It is just the same as a regular trombone but with a extra tube which allows the instrument to reach the lower notes. The extra tube is added by means of a rotary valve operated by the player's thumb. A typical bass trombone is a B-flat F trombone. Some older bass trombones were tuned in F or G. These had a long slide which needed a handle to enable the player to fully extend the slide. The G bass trombone was great favourite with the brass bands in England and were still in use well into the 20th century.
How are vibrations produced on trombone?
Vibrations on a trombone are produced when the player buzzes their lips into the mouthpiece, creating a sound wave. The air column inside the instrument then vibrates in response to this lip vibration. The trombone's slide adjusts the length of the air column, allowing the player to change pitches while maintaining the same fundamental buzzing technique. This combination of lip vibration and air column manipulation produces the characteristic sound of the trombone.
How does the trombone makes its sounds when it doesn't have valves?
The purpose of valves in other brass instruments is to alter the length and shape of the tubing that vibrations from lip buzzing travel through, which in turn alters the sound that comes out. Extending and shortening the slide on a trombone has the same effect.
How is a trombone easily recognised?
A trombone is one of the easiest recognized instruments since there are very few other instruments that are similar (i.e. clarinet and oboe). A trombone is generally made up of two pieces joined together where the main hand holds the instrument. The lower piece looks like and skinny but long stretched "U" while the upper piece is a similar shape but flares out into the "bell" of the horn. A trombone is normally made of brass or a like metal and can come in a variety of colors dependent upon the manufacture. An example is that Yamaha makes a tri-colored trombone... very elegant looking. When fully assembled, the trombone is one continuous piece of metal similarly shaped as a widely stretched "S" beginning at the mouth piece and continues to the Bell. The standard trombone, unlike nearly all other instruments, does not have any valves, keys, or strings. The sound and notes are produced by elongating the slide into one of seven positions. Moving the slide in or out will change the note higher or lower based on the needs of the musician. In addition to the standard trombone, there are variations that are available. The valve trombone is similar in shape, but has valves like a trumpet or cornet and has a fixed slide. A triggered trombone has become popular with musicians who have graduated from beginner to a more advanced level of play. These triggered trombones look like a standard "S" trombone, but on the upper portion of the instrument has a value, similar to a French Horn, to divert the air and change the note. This is generally seen as an "F" attachment trombone but can be in other keys. This attachment, in the "F" range is generally used to eliminate the need to position the slide into the seventh position or to quickly change notes without having to move the slide. Finally, there is another trombone commonly called a Super Bone or Super Trombone. This trombone is tricky to play, but produces incredibly unique sounds and the master of the Super Bone is a talented musician. A Super Bone combines the valves of the valve trombone with the slide and trigger of a regular trombone. This trombone like as unique and amazing as it sounds. This trombone can be played slide only, valve only, or a combination of both at the same time.
