trumpettrax is an unknown quantity at this point
If I'm getting what you guys are saying (I think I've heard it a little differently though) simply - we are trying to make our instruments "ring" as we play. I think people feel that if you have that perfect instrument - like a Monette or in my case a Bach (hehe)- it should automatically make this happen or make it easier. But, according to Manny he can do this with any make trumpet. So, my question is this, when you play the instrument correctly, which I'm assuming is what you are doing when you make it ring, will it "feel" different (like when playing a student horn and then switching to a professional horn - that feeling) or will you hear it and just KNOW that your are making that thing ring or sing? The sound production will be different - I mean drastically?

Thanks,

hope this made sense! :)
