You obviously don't understand the technical in's and out's of this mechanism. :eyes:

For the nearsighted, though, we are offering this (along with a sight that focuses at c. 16").

Thats not accurate enough!
Put on a DRO: https://www.tpactools.com/1-AXIS-DRO-DI ... _p_61.html

As it states on that site: "It doesn't limit to mill or lathe application, all scales can be installed on variety of machine or device"

That could be a game-changer for accurately finding the positions and being in tune!

With a bit of work, I can see a computer controlled slide being made. With audio input, it could adjust very quickly for any inaccuracies in either your embouchure buzz or the bugle.

You just upload the music to the computer and away you go…

That particular model won't allow me to add a soprano trombone on top though. You guys really need to try stacking a soprano trombone on top of your bass, really opens up your musical opportunities... 🤣
