a B flat on the piano is a C on the Trumpet or just type in online trumpet tuner on Google and it will come up with the tone. You pull the valve in and out where the spit comes out to tune the trumpet.

By using the main tuning slide for all brass instruments.

The Trombone can also use the slide to tune.

Valve-d and rotor-d brass also have tuning slides for each valve/rotor (double horns have two per rotor, one per side).

A double horn and some trombones have multiple tuning slides to fine tune the pitches. A double horn has a main one and one for each 'side' Bb and F.
