The tuba's actuator refers to the valve system that controls the flow of air through the instrument. Typically, this system consists of three to six valves that the player presses to change the pitch by altering the length of the tubing. When a valve is activated, it reroutes the air, allowing the musician to play different notes. Essentially, the actuator enables the tuba to produce a wide range of sounds and pitches.
How do you spell the sound a tuba makes?
The sound a tuba makes is often spelled as "oom" or "oompah." These phonetic representations capture the deep, resonant tones produced by the instrument. The term "oompah" is commonly associated with the rhythmic style of music often played by brass bands, where the tuba provides a bass line.

Who made the Metal vase with sskk mark?
The metal vase with the "sskk" mark was most likely made by the Sheffield Silversmiths, Kelham Island Industrial Museum in England. Sheffield was historically known for its silver and metalwork industry, and the "sskk" mark could be their maker's mark or a design stamp.
metals like iron, copper, gold, silver and such cannot be broken down to simpler molecules. They are they're own molecules. If you mean what is their makeup, they're "made" of atoms.
Most metals used by industries and people in general are compounds of different elements, which change (obviously) the composion of the metal, for different uses.
Can tuba-tuba seed repel cockroaches?
Tuba Tuba is a plant grown in the Philipines. As an herbal medicine, the sap of the plant is believed to have anti-cancer properties. The leaves can be used stomach ache and can also be used as a natural insect repellant. The roots of the jatropha are used as an antidote for snake bites. The bark can be used as treatment for sores while a tea from the roots and leaves can be used to treat diarrhea. The oil extracted from the plant's seeds, aside from being an alternative to fuel can also be used in the process of soap making. Extract from the plant's roots can be processed as yellow dye while the extract from its barks can be processed to produce blue dye. The seeds can be pounded and used for tanning leather. The plant itself can be used to prevent soil erosion. But the most promising use is as a source of biofuel.
All part of the plant contain poison so don't use it for anything unless you are sure you know what you're doing.
Would a tuba and ukulele duet sound good?
It would depend entirely on the composition. The biggest danger is that the trumpet is going to overwhelm the clarinet and both of them are going to over power the ukulele. You would have to amplify the ukulele, but they are all musical instruments and they can be blended. It won't be easy, but it can be done.
What is the average professional tuba player's salary?
According to an article by Douglas Yeo (the Bass Trombonist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra:
"...The base scale pay for members of the top American orchestras (Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, New York, Philadelphia) is approximately $2000+/week (minimum guaranteed scale). These orchestras typically offer 10 weeks paid vacation, full medical and dental coverage, generous sick leave, a pension (after 30 years service or the "rule of 85" which provides a full pension to players whose age and years of service combined equal 85) of over $70,000/year, and many other excellent benefits. After passing an initial probationary period (of one to three years depending on the orchestra's policy), tenured members enjoy job protection and security as members of the American Federation of Musicians. Dismissal can only be made for cause which must be proven to an arbitration panel, often made up of peer members of the orchestra...Many orchestras make either audio or television recordings. Current AFM scale for a three hour recording session (symphonic scale) is approximately $350.00 not including yearly residual royalty payments made to the individual musicians."

What is the origin of the tuba?
The shape of the tuba has been changed through out the ages. The original shape of the tuba came from an instrument called a ophicleide. It was a form of the tuba except it had no valves. Later on Johann Gottfried Moritz and Wilheim Wieprecht invented a keyed ophicleide. The shape of the tuba was always changing through out the years. Well in 1845 a man by the name of Adolfe Sax had created a family of saxophone horns. He had these ranging from the soprano and the contrabass. The contrabass resembled a lot of what the modern tuba resembles now and that's where the modern shape of the tuba came from.
Later on though a band leader by the name of John Philip Sousa got in contact with C. G. Conn and they created a more "audience-friendly" version of the tuba which is now known as the sousaphone.
Prussian Patent No. 19 was granted to Wilhelm Friedrich Wieprecht and Carl Moritz on September 12, 1835 for a "basstuba" in F1. The original Wieprecht and Moritz instrument used five valves of the Berlinerpumpen type that were the forerunners of the modern rotary valve.
The addition of valves made it possible to play low in the harmonic series of the instrument and still have a complete selection of notes. Prior to the invention of valves, brass instruments were limited to notes in the harmonic series, and were thus generally played very high with respect to their fundamental pitch. Harmonics starting three octaves above the fundamental pitch are about a whole step apart, making a useful variety of notes possible.
The ophicleide used a cup-shaped brass instrument mouthpiece but employed keys and tone holes similar to those of a modern saxophone. Another forerunner to the tuba was the serpent, a bass brass instrument that was shaped in a wavy form to make the tone holes accessible to the player. Tone holes changed the pitch by providing an intentional leak in the bugle of the instrument. While this changed the pitch, it also had a pronounced effect on the timbre. By using valves to adjust the length of the bugle the tuba produced a smoother tone that eventually led to its popularity.
Adolphe Sax, like Wieprecht, was interested in marketing systems of instruments from soprano to bass, and developed a series of brass instruments known as saxhorns. The instruments developed by Sax were generally pitched in E-flat and B-flat, while the Wieprecht "basstuba" and the subsequent Cerveny contrabass tuba were pitched in F and C (see below on pitch systems). Sax's instruments gained dominance in France, and later in Britain and America, as a result of the popularity and movements of instrument makers such as Gustave Auguste Besson (who moved from France to Britain) and Henry Distin (who found his way eventually to America).
The actual instrument itself is what vibrates.
For example when you hit a cymbal, you can sometimes see the brass vibrating, and also if you touch the cymbal while it is making a sound you can feel the vibrations on your hand.
