I used to play some E-Bass... not very good, but whatever...
You mean like the Sousaphone? Sick, haha, I tried it and it was epic. And I'm really short, so it was a challenge just to hold it up let alone play it xDrust45 wrote:
I voted 1 but I suppose I should've said 2 as I used to play trumpet. But now I play Euphonium, and my lips are much more suited for it than trumpet.
Very true, but if someone jumped from French Horn to Tuba I'd give it credit as another instrument because so much more breathing and lip skills need to be learned, it feels like a totally different instrument. I also think Trombone is different and should considered so, the only real brass instrument that uses just slide.those wrote:

Euphonium != Sousaphone It's kinda a mini Tuba, it's in about the same range as trombone and has a slightly darker tone.ddrXero64 wrote:

Not really true, no way I can handle a trombone slide (well without practice) and my lips are way too big for a french horn.those wrote:

I consider them two, using mallets isn't the same as using your hand and fingers, they're more on the drum side but with more pitches. Chords aren't usually used either.Tenshi wrote:
Well I used to play piano decently, and I play the keyboard instruments in my school band (xylophone, marimba, etc.), so I don't know whether that counts as one or two instruments.
Also, shouldn't the title say "How many of you play one or more instruments?" or something like that?
Well I said Sousaphone because though they are the same, the Sousaphone I believe is the marching one. The one that looks like it's wrapped around you with the horn above your head. I tried that, it was a white one, not a one you'd put on one of those tuba stands or whatever. It was pretty big for my size lol. I don't have the breath for Tuba yet, or at least the lung control. My embouchure (lip formation) is pretty good, the tone isn't too bad for me.rust45 wrote:

The Sousaphone is the marching equivalent of the tuba, not euphonium. The marching equivalent of euphonium would be a marching baritone, which is a trumpet with muscles.ddrXero64 wrote:

Any used/refurbished Casio should do the trick. *Speaking from personal experience, used to play piano/keyboard.*Remco32 wrote:
I play the electric guitar and I still need to get myself a keyboard. Any suggestions on a keyboard for cheap? I don't want to spend much on a instrument I'm not going to main.
Oh sheet, you're right. Euhonium=Baritone Horn. I played that too, but I preferred tuba. Wow though, I fudged up on that one. Complete misunderstanding in my head, my bad.rust45 wrote:
