Sattler had a great influence on trombone design, introducing a significantly larger bore (the most important innovation since the Renaissance), Schlangenverzierungen (snake decorations), the bell garland, and the wide bell flare. These features were widely copied during the 19th century and are still found on German made trombones.
The valve trombone emerged concurrently with the invention of valves in the early 19th century. Most early instruments retained the shape and form of the slide trombone, employing three valves with the tubing arranged in place of the slide; others used the new valve mechanism as an opportunity to explore different configurations while retaining the overall cylindrical bore and bell profile.
The range of the B ♭ soprano trombone is similar to the B ♭ trumpet, E 3 to C 6. [1] As part of his "Soprano Trombone Project", Torbjörn Hultmark has used the instrument to successfully begin children on brass instruments from as young as the age of four, and is the world's first registered Suzuki teacher in soprano trombone.

The trombonium is a brass instrument formerly manufactured by H.N. White Company and Conn-Selmer. [1] [2] It was unveiled by H.N. White in 1938 and was manufactured until the mid 1970s. [1] The trombonium has the same timbre as a regular trombone except in a smaller, more compact form. [1]
