Hello all, I've just updated my webpage on valve trumpet intonation, http://tonalsoft.com/monzo/trumpet/trumpet-intonation.htm greatly expanding the old table...

... Looks fine in my e-mail client. But, though I didn't read your page, I generally don't like this sort of thing because it tends to imply the trumpet's...
... I took a look. Note: * The overblown notes of a trumpet aren't necessarily harmonics. * 2 of the 3 valve slides are adjustable, and are adjusted ...
This happens because it is a slightly conical bore which they did to make playing in 12 ET easier. Bruce Fowler pointed this out to me about the trombone when...
... The trumpets of baroque times were longer I think, which makes it easier to play higher 'harmonics', which they had to do to play scales. On the modern...

... From what I remember it's a horribly complex subject. A conical bore won't give harmonic-series modes (they're something like n-squared instead of n)....

Hi Carl, Did you *really* read my page? I mention all kinds of caveats, including the fact that there are tuning slides, that the 7th harmonic is rarely used,...
... There can't be a single taper for the horn in both valved and unvalved states, that's for sure. But neither *has* to be cylindrical. ... Hm, interesting...
