Who might have some web pics of something like this, and also be generous enough to display them?
I'm planning on playing the Mendelsohn - Midsummer Night's Dream ophicleide parts - the suite of incidental music - on a comp. euph (if I can get away with it) and would like to trigger the 1st slide to fix the low B natural.
I think I've spotted a trigger on a comp. B&H recently (but not a close perusal by me)...As I recall, that trigger was about the size of a baseball bat.
I've got enough time for a manual pull and push without a trigger, but "just".
Any pictures would be appreciated...no pictures of triggers on non-comp's, please...I gotta have my left index finger wrapped around the instrument to mash #4.
