Frequently Asked Questions...
I cant fit a conn 7C trumpet mouthpiece into a bobcat mouthpiece extractor, how does it fit? (works on tuba?
Answer:
On a bobcat the end where the T adjustment arms are located cradle the cup of the mouthpiece. The bottom of the bobcat should be clamped around the mouthpiece right before it goes into the leadpipe of the trumpet. Make sure you use even tensioning so get the mouthpiece cradled in and then turn 1/2 turn on each T alternating until it is snug. Pay attention when you are beginning to pull the mouthpiece because there are instances where the leadpipe is weak and can begin to buckle instead of letting go of the mouthpiece. If you do get it out make sure that you clean the inside of the leadpipe and the outside of the mouthpiece really well. To insert a mouthpiece properly you should lightly place the mouthpiece in the horn to the point that gravity holds it in and the give it a 1/4 turn. To remove it you would give it a 1/4 turn in the opposite direction. Hope this helps.

How to Practice Playing Tuba : How to Buzz on a Tuba Mouthpiece
The Wonders of Woodwind Instruments
This type of instrument is usually a tube that makes a sound when air is blown through it. Some of these are played by the musician blowing air directly into the tube through the mouthpiece, such as when playing the saxophone, while others only require the musician to blow air over the mouthpiece, such as when playing the flute. The length of the tube is what determines the pitch of the sound the instrument will make, as does the covering of certain holes that have been drilled into the tube. The wind instrument has been around for quite a long time and has become more complex with time. Originally starting out as a small wooden tube with a few holes drilled into it, many wind instruments today have keys that cover different holes when pressed and many are made out of metal, such as brass.
There are now many different types of wind instruments a person can choose from. Some are brass wind instruments, some are wood wind instruments and all create a unique sound that appeals to different people. Some people are attracted to the deep but delicate sound of the oboe, some to the slightly raspy but strong sound of the saxophone, others to the bold sound of the trumpet and others to the light and delicate sound of the smaller flutes. All these different sounds and what about them attracts people is what often determines what an individual will want to play.
To play a musical instrument, to enjoy playing it and to practice it, it tends to help when a person can enjoy the sound and familiarize himself to it. Unlike the string instruments, or some percussion instruments, many wind instruments don't require as much tuning, if even necessary. There are many that don't require tuning at all, though the more complex wind instruments that have keys may require some adjustments to the keys.
This particular group of instruments is also seen as instruments that are a little easier to learn and play. While this might be true, they do offer their own challenge. Many of these instruments require good posture and good strong lungs to be able to introduce enough air into the instrument in order to maintain control of the air flow as well as to produce the sound that is required. A tuba, for example, requires a lot of air, but it also requires good control of the air the musician blows into it. Otherwise, the desired sound will not be created.
Some wind instruments may not require as much air, but someone who has weaker lungs, such as someone inflicted with a condition such as asthma, a wind instrument may not be a good choice. However, someone who wishes to play a wind instrument and is given the opportunity to do so, the activity can be fulfilling. These are great instruments to play when looking for a hobby and not looking for something too complicated. There are many simpler wind instruments to choose from that emit beautiful sounds when played right.
