Wow Mr. Steve is amazing. What do you mean mathematically speaking? Is it like... length of horn*diameter of bell*number of keys*width of leadpipe*width of mouthpeice*7=The lowest note?
Brad

Actually, Brad, I said mathmatically speaking because pitch and maximum range have to deal with the length of the tubing. Well, you're right I shouldn't have exactly said mathmatically speaking because it doesn't take a lot of math to figure it out. More music and stuff. But anyways, heres what I got.

Basically, the lowest physically possible note on horn would be the fundamental pitch of the longest amount of tubing you can get on the horn, wich would be a pedal F Sharp (123) wich gives you tubing the length of a B Natural Horn.

Physics and math. Much fun. :3 No offense meant. This is a constructive topic, not a destructive forum.

it depends on ur flute prolly...

oh man! where am i? a Horn forum... sorry, just ignore my reply...
(gee i thought u guys were talking about flute...)
