Emptying out the Horn.
Do you ever get tired of emptying out all 6 of your individual slides?
Well, by doing this 7 step method you should never have to pull out any of those slides again. Note: this will only work for horns that have a Bb tuning slide. e.g. Yamaha, Holton, ? (Sorry Conn owners).
1. Hold your horn in an "attention" position. The bell is facing to the right and the mouthpipe is on the left.
2. Turn the horn 90 degrees to the right so the mouthpipe is pointing right and the bell is facing down.
3. Pause here.
4. Flip the horn 180 degrees to the right so that the mouthpipe is now pointing to the left and the bell is up.
5. Pause again.
6. Push down all three of your valves and flip the horn 180 degrees back to the left like it was during step 3.
7. Empty out your Bb slide and then your F slide.
