A baritone horn looks somewhat like a miniaturized tuba. A bass trombone is still a trombone, but slightly larger. It also has an F trigger, which opens up more tubing near the bell of the trombone and changes the note. This allows players to reach the range from a low E flat to a low B, which is physically impossible on a tenor trombone. Some bass trombones also include another trigger, G flat, which can be opened separately or in combination with the F trigger.
Trombone are different for everyone so I recommend you go to a band shop and just try out their trombone and see what brand you like best.
The advantages of using a bass trombone with a double trigger mechanism include extended range, improved flexibility in playing low notes, and smoother transitions between different registers.
The weight of a trombone in its case can vary depending on the specific make and model of the trombone, as well as the materials used in the case. On average, a trombone in its case typically weighs between 10 to 20 pounds (4.5 to 9 kilograms). It is important to consider the weight of the case itself, as well as any additional accessories or attachments that may be included with the trombone.
The best way to read and interpret a trigger trombone chart is to understand the symbols and markings used, practice reading the chart slowly and accurately, and listen to recordings of the music to help with interpretation and phrasing.
No. The trigger enable you to hit #7 position without moving the slide. There is plenty of pro players who do not use a trigger trombone.
it is silver with extra tubbing where the normal tuning slide would be. it also has a trigger so u can play notes like c in first position
It's B natural 7th position or slightly-flat second with trigger on a tenor trombone, or any Bb (B flat) pitched trombone.
nothing changes, but you have the ability to pull the trigger on that particular type of trombone and by pulling the trigger, a 6th position C can turn into a 2nd position C. It will be the same note, only you are using the F attachment. You don't have to use the attachment, but it does make it easier to play 6th position notes, and im pretty sure it can help you reach lower notes.
The trigger routs air through an additional loop of tubing, which results in pitches being lowered by a fourth. On bass trombones, there is a second trigger, which lowers the pitch by an additional fifth.
It's not about what is the best trigger trombone, it's all about preference. It's like asking what the best car is. I would suggest a Bach, a Conn,a Getzen, a Yamaha, a King, or whatever your preference is. I'm guessing, you're talking about a .547 bore horn, which is the most common bore. Two of the most common trigger horns are the Bach 42bo and the Conn 88h for that bore.
Using calipers, the bore size of a trombone is determined by measuring the inside diameter of the inner slide at the bottom. You must remove the outer slide to do this measurement. Extreme care should be taken when handling the inner slide for this measurement.
