How to Play Pedals on the TromboneDennis Garrels on behalf of Expert Village. Pedals and notes but what am I talking about pedals, they're not foot pedals on the trombone they're not even on the piano. Maybe some pipe organs and some keyboards but by pedal I mean the deepest note the trombone vibrates when you play a note. If the entire horn is vibrating it's a very low note, if the note splits in half and it's a half partial it goes one octave. I would play a pedal and then the vibration of the horn will split in half somewhere in here and it would be up one octave. Pedal basic one note. (playing trombone) Up one octave, up one more octave, up one more octave so I'm going to go to the basic pedals all through these notes. The lowest note on the trombone is the low E, this is very low on the piano. (playing trombone) Half, F sharp, G, G sharp that's the series of seven pedals.
