Revelation mouthpieces from Brasswind Research Brasswind Research offers the world's only complete line of constant-pitch mouthpieces that range from extremely bright to extremely mellow-sounding in 12 logical steps. Each mouthpiece has a unique length in relation to cup size that permits each one to stay within an acoustic "sweet spot" as it relates to intonation and responsiveness. They work well for most trumpets pitched in Bb, and trumpets in other keys that work well with conventional mouthpieces from makers like Bach, Schilke, and Yamaha. There are six basic models described below that range from about 2" to 4" in length. Each model fits down inside an instrument's receiver just like any conventional mouthpiece. You can "Hot-Swap" any mouthpiece in an instant withouth retuning, an exclusive feature! There are six more "Plus-Series" models that sound and respond half-way between the Standard models. This way almost any timbre of sound may be achieved. Designed as a two-part system for exceptional design flexibility, each mouthpiece body attaches to a separate rim with screw threads. Sizes of the screw rims range from #0 to#8 in equal increments. See rim size chart below. Rims are also offered in variations of high or low pitch if needed, although most times the standard rim will work just find. Custom rim shapes may also be obtained directly from Brasswind Research.
Six more models are designed halfway between those described below. They are labeled A+, B+, C+, D+, E+, and F+

RIMSA Rim of your choice is included FREE with the purchase of every mouthpiece body. When needed, a rim may be exchanged for another model at a very low fee: the cost of mailing. Our Screw Rim designs give you the opportunity for precise selection, flexibility, and interchangeability when needed to solve specific problems, like Stretched Octaves, for different feel in the "bite" zone, or a different "lay" for the outer contact region. Basic sizes are labeled 0 to 8 in nine equal steps starting with Rim 0 that feels very large, to Rim 8 that feels very small. We take pride in holding extremely tight machining tolerances. Our Mouthpiece Selection Chart (click HERE) shows dramatically how our sizes relate to mouthpieces measured from competitors products. It also shows wide variability of measured sizes from some "big name" brands: Please note that measured variability can make the chart seem a bit odd at first glance. Rim Profiles were designed only after an extensive survey of mouthpieces preferred by top players. The inner bite zone, top curvature, and outer lay reflect preferred geometries often seen amongst products from several manufacturers. Our rim profiles should work well for most players. We can customize too. All Standard Rims have a "Medium Pitch Level" that help make our mouthpieces work well on most instruments. High Pitch or Low Pitch rims are available when ascending scale-wise sharpness, or scale-wise flatness become a concern.   |
