There are many differences between a trumpet and a trombone. Here are some: * A trumpet is smaller than a trombone. * A trumpet uses valves to change notes while a trombone uses a slide. * A trumpet player can usually play high notes than a trombone player. That is why the trumpet is a member of the orchestra section called the high brass and the trombone is a member of the section called the low brass. * Trumpets usually get the melody a lot more often than trombones. * Trombones can glisando while trumpets (and any other instrument) can't.

Which brass instrument other than the trombone was once made with the 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!
