[Trombone-l] F-attachment condensation problem

[John Burton]

 Perhaps not *exactly* the same situation, but I've added a second spit
valve (water key??) to the second set of slides on my BBb contra
(Miraphone 157).   Maybe I just blow lotsa spit, but it seems that both
sides of the slide seem to collect about the same amount of spit...

Naturally, your mileage may vary...

Not a silly thought at all!
Some horn players add w.keys to different branches and sometimes the Bb
3rd slide as they can be difficult to pull quickly.

Maybe install a Saturn to save space and be less obtrusive.

Thanks

I have been noticing that my F-attachment tends to accumulate
condensation, and due to the way it's wrapped, it's a bit of a pain to
get it out - I play a Yamaha YBL-613.  Has anyone every had a water key
added to the F-attachment tubing, or am I just completely off my rocker
in thinking that?
