Is that a Miraphone? 3rd slide looks very much like Meinl Weston

Very nice, congratulations!

Some nice ChatGPT price estimation...

Clearly you just don't understand it

Very cool tuba!
Curious about the comparison with the 164

And it dips down to the low C# as well! I was in the local brass band here for a season, and the rep honestly kicked my butt a bit playing BBb bass (on my CC tuba).


The brass band repertoire really seems to be written with 4-valve compensating systems in mind. I also play in a 'normal ...

Mainly working on the intro to this brass band arrangement of The Dark Knight
Playing this in a concert next weekend. We have 2 Eb's en 3 BBb's in the band, it sounds so awesome when I add the low part

As you can see it starts on a D in BBb treble cleff, so thats actually a C (1-3-4 on my ...

Marketing built-in with a brand name like that...

All AI does is read text and, based on that, create new text. It follows the rules of writing/grammar/spelling and that helps in making the answer sound convincing, even though it is completely wrong.

Use it wisely, if it gives you an answer ask for the source and read that to verify

I guess this ...

We have played Prismatic Light by Alan Fernie as opener a few times. The subtitle is "Concert Opener" so i guess that fits

This is why I have been fooling around with the idea of building an additional valve section (keeping the one I have, too) for my Holton.

(Hold up on the eye-rolling for just a minute, please.)



Next up, modular bells, modular bows, additional BBb slides etc etc
A true do it all tuba :laugh ...

Are you sure?

Tuning:
I use "Tuner -Pitched!" On my android phone, it has a nice simple interface, I have Tonal Energy, but I don't like it, way to cluttered
On my laptop I use FMIT (https://gillesdegottex.github.io/fmit/index.html), a lot of analysis options available but that can all be turned off

I am not a professional musician, I play with multiple groups and there is no librarian to ask (there is one, but he is also supposed to be playing) if they have all the music for me, I have like 500 pieces on my tablet (12", and I crop the scanned music so that I don't have the white margins, which ...

The issues described (except for the price of possible damage) sound like user error to be honest, either not using a dedicated sheet music app or simply not knowing how to use it.

Often with 'new things', the 'new thing' is blamed and not the one using it that didn't spend time learning how to ...

Given the size of his collection, @Kontrabasstuba has probably dealt with this, maybe he has some tips

I got my tuba from Germany to The Netherlands by car, was about 8-9 hours round trip

Adams Marching Brass had been removed from their own website for some time, not sure if these are still available

Hmm, I only see Conn, Jupiter, Eastman and Yamaha sousaphones listed on the site.

Only what is listed under "Adams Brass" and "Adams Percussion" is what they manufacture themselves, for the rest Adams is a music store and repair shop, that's how they started

Mine is fiberglass and old, it was not acquired new by my group
Like I said, it is marked Adams but that is not because they made it, its because they partly sponsored it

(Again, no idea if this is what Cameron is talking about, this is the ...

I have a sousaphone, owned by the 'carneval' group I play with, that is marked Adams on the bell, but it is clearly a Conn 36K.
The group already had it when I joined, from what I heard it was supplied/partly sponsored by Adams when the group got it (Adams is local to us) so in return for that we ...
