    The horn is an Eb Alto Triple. It is made by Engelbert Schmid. It actually has 7 rotors, as the change valves work in tandem. Fantastic system!

    I don't know if I do it right, but I blow into the instrument while pressing the keys to hear for spit

    Do you have to remove the Bb horn 3rd tuning slide? How does water jump from the Bb horn side to the F horn side? Is this why you wiggle the 1st and 2nd valves?

  • @jsMagic190
    @jsMagic190 7 років тому +1

    hold the horn valves up, hold trigger and wiggle the 3 rotors. do this while slowly turning the horn till the valves are facing down. u should have turned it a full 180. Hold the trigger and slowly turn it 90 degrees till the trigger slide that is side by side with ur tuning slide... empty it while still hlding trigger. continue to hold trigger and turn it another 90 degrees and empty the trigger slide that is side by side with ur 3 key slides. After that, continue to hold trigger and empty the other tuning slide that isnt ur main tuning slide. Completely empty horn

    On an F/Bb double horn, does the water accumulate only in the 3rd F slide or the 3rd Bb slide?

    • @maddyterrell0
      @maddyterrell0 4 роки тому +1

      I was taught to keep spinning the horn. We were taught to remove our mouthpieces and then spin the horn about 2-3 times. It's slower than this method, but it works.

  • @MrSober4now
    @MrSober4now 6 років тому +2

    This never works for me. I have to keep rotating the horn like a stirring wheel to get all the spit out if it’s none in the valves.

    • @KevinLeroyGrant
      @KevinLeroyGrant 6 років тому

      Better tip for if you're sitting down- empty the leadpipe and then blow into each corresponding value very quickly and empty any that sounds like spit
      Each horn has a different feel, so the longer you play on it, the more familiar you'd be with the common valves that the spit would be in
      3rd valve trigger usually has as much spit as a goddamn trombone for me though lol

    • @timcherry4556
      @timcherry4556 6 років тому

      He has 2 triggers, its very heavy by the way

    • @entity3383
      @entity3383 5 років тому

      He is using what is called a “Full triple horn” this is typically heavier in weight, requires more skill to play and can be much more expensive.
