Certainly does a good job emulating the sound of the classical or orchestral trumpet.

I have a feeling that was the target here. It does a fair job on the swing stuff, if you are into orchestral trumpet players playin' swing stuff. A bit too pure for that, I think.

Try to avoid gettin' on the breath swells so much.

Ome dead giveaway that only trumpeters will hear is that low C, which is the D on the Bb trumpet. It is dead on the tempered scale here, something we all wish would actually happen on the trumpet that the design really doesn't allow, even if we throw the third or first valve slide out. Not a kill here.
