Features:
**GEN 3 MOUTHPIECES ARE STILL COMING IN STOCK. SOME MODELS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY BUT WILL BE SHIPPED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.**
Classical players and Jazzers alike: If you’ve ever fallen in love with your sound on a B cup but decided against using it because it felt restrictive in the upper register or limited your endurance, LOTUS has cracked the code!
The XL cup is particularly useful for orchestral players. This mouthpiece lets you maintain a sweet sound with tremendous core, but holds off on the brilliance until you start playing at or above forte. This can really help you to blend within the ensemble and avoid getting “the hand” from the conductor. It’s also great for helping you ace all the articulation qualities the repertoire demands with ease.
Jazz players: This mouthpiece instantly adds a very warm, thick, sophisticated sound to your ballad playing or any other playing with a gentle approach related to Chet Baker, Blue Mitchell, etc. Don’t worry about using a heavy or large-bore trumpet before you have heard how much richer your sound becomes just by using this mouthpiece.
Ideal for:
- Orchestral & Chamber music playing with a warm concept of sound (avoid getting "the hand" as often)
- Rotary Trumpet and those performing often in smaller or older halls
- Jazz soloists who prefer a warm and round sound and don't often venture too far up into the upper register
Brass:
- Full, well balanced, and sonically well-rounded
- For plenty of players it offers a familiar playing experience
- Will most likely blend with other brands in a section setting
Bronze:
- Added warmth and richness to tone color
- Normal trumpet "brilliance" is held off until Forte (high-end cut)
- Increased note stability
Nickel Silver:
- More focused and brighter sound
- Maximised note targeting
- Extra clarity to articulation
Rim Sizes:
1: Similar rim diameter to a Bach 1/1.25 or Schilke 17/16
2: Similar rim diameter to a Bach 3 or Schilke 14
3:Similar rim diameter to Bach 5 or Schilke 13
