Alon, on which 3rd slide ? On the 3rd slide for the Bb or
for the F Horn do you want the water key ?
These tube are cylindrical and also is the lead pipe at the
point where the water key will be applied. There is nothing
special designed there. The tubes are provided industry
material anyway.

I am currently doing a bit of rummaging around for recording dates of a
motley assortment of horn recordings that I have which are part of a
(not so) little project that I have been putting together for some time
now. Most of them have release dates on them and I will be doing my own
discograph
The Chicago Symphony Orchestra performed Mahler 5 all this weekend. I was
able to attend the concert on Saturday and it was the best concert I have
witnessed. The orchestra used 7 horns and Dale Clevenger's wife played
assistant.
The entire orchestra was incredible. Everything lined up cor
I don't think the "Conn-Queror" (as shown @
http://www.cornetconnection.com/connqueror.htm )
really has compensation.
If you look closely you'll see that there aren't any air passage-ways
directly between the valve casings to allow a direct 'no valve' flow
of air. The external loop from 1st to 3r
The accumulation, while playing, of undrained water at the low spots in the
tubing generates turbulence that's arguably worse than whatever
turbulence-causing effects there might be from installing a water key.
So if you're hankering for a water key on your horn, go for it.

One of my teachers in college had a really useful exercise. You sit the

I've never seen a Buescher model like this, but I do own a Conn Conn-Queror
that also has added tubing between the first and third valves. On the Conn,
the tube you see going from the first valve to the third valve acts as a
compensator. I don't know for sure, but I would assume that they are bui
Dear all
I have been thinking of installing a water key in my mouth pipe and my 3rd
finger slide . The thing is - each and every horn maker describes endlessly
how every tube is carefully designed in a way it won't make any turbulence .
On the other hand ,water keys do appear in horn design .How co

They actually only used valves from Germany, not quite identical ones to
the early 103s. E
How is this so? The extra length of tube is always in the air path and won't
afftect the pitch more than having a longer 3rd valve slide would. 3 valve
compensating instruments have extra loops on the 1st & 2nd valves.
