A Trombone player uses a combination of the slide and his air to change pitches. For example if you start out playing a low c and go up to an a you need to move your slide and blow harder. If you are going from a b flat to an f though all you need to do is blow more air because they are located in the same position. Also if you are a too sharp or flat on a note you can use your tighten or loosen the corners of your lips to get the correct pitch.
