Are there TubeNets for the other instruments?
Hey guys,
Teaching band in Colorado Springs, CO. Think this is a great resource for serious tuba students late into their high school careers, taking lessons, etc. looking into getting their own equipment, and wondering if anyone here knows of websites for the rest of the instruments, like this?
Specifically oboe, currently, but if you know of other instrument websites, that would be great!

Re: Are there TubeNets for the other instruments?
Online Trombone Forum is very good.
http://tromboneforum.org/index.php/" target="_blank
Trumpet Herald is good.
http://www.trumpetherald.com/forum/" target="_blank
There are lots of individual players with excellent sites. Sarah Willis on horn, for example.
Younger players are probably on Facebook instead of forums.
Players my age are still on listservs wondering why we don't get any email.

Re: Are there TubeNets for the other instruments?
Tubenet is a great resource if you like jokes. That one thread in the "off topic" is still going strong after a decade plus.
For tuba stuff it's ok. It's like politics though, nobody really agrees on anything. Fast air or slow air? American or Euro shank? CC vs BBb? Rotor vs piston? "More air" or articulating? Lacquer vs silver vs satin silver vs satin brass vs raw brass vs a belt tied around the belt??
I've looked for "other tubenets" before and I've never found one that replicated what is here on the same level. We just happened to be the right community, at the right place and time in the history of the internet era. This is the Goldilocks of instrument forums.

Re: Are there TubeNets for the other instruments?
The lack of an accepted method has a lot to do with this. Other instruments have a lot more in the way of a developed approach, traditions, better known repertoire, recorded performances, etc. We have a little sliver and a lot of people reading down an octave or playing a transcription.nobody really agrees on anything

Wouldn't work for them. There's only one "bloke" and only one "elephant".Schlepporello wrote:There are other instruments that need their own instrument specific forum?

There is an alternative trumpet site,

It is somewhat less combative than trumpetherald.

Re: Are there TubeNets for the other instruments?
On trumpetherald, the biggest, longest-running, most argued about subject is on what names to give notes on ledger lines above the staff. E.g., exactly which note is double G??Watchman wrote:...For tuba stuff it's ok. It's like politics though, nobody really agrees on anything. Fast air or slow air? American or Euro shank? CC vs BBb? Rotor vs piston? "More air" or articulating? Lacquer vs silver vs satin silver vs satin brass vs raw brass vs a belt tied around the belt??...
The second biggest argument is about air pressure. Throw in the analogy of airflow to a water hose and we're up to 90% of the discussion.

Re: Are there TubeNets for the other instruments?
Surprised I haven't seen this, since oboe was requested:

It's not tubenet, but there are some knowledgable and helpful people there as well as quite a few people with basic questions. Nice bunch.
