Bossop Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 a friend of mine swears by the use of a P.E.T.E. device to improve endurance and range on his trumpet. Has anyone used this device? Is it worth it? Are there any dangers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Pirtle Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 a friend of mine swears by the use of a P.E.T.E. device to improve endurance and range on his trumpet. Has anyone used this device? Is it worth it? Are there any dangers? You might try this short book that incorporates a similar approach (without the need of a P.E.T.E. device): http://www.amazon.com/IMPROVE-CHOPS-WITHOUT-PLAYING-ebook/dp/B00AK12M5K/ref=sr_1_9?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1367518212&sr=1-9&keywords=trumpet I've tried the method found in the book and found that it had a quick and noticeably positive impact on range and endurance. It's easy to do during the commute each day and takes only a couple of minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Pirtle Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Does it have to do with the old pencil trick? No pencil, pen, or typewriter involved with the method prescribed in the Boe booklet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
