My mind is screwed up but I don't think it's from switching horns a lot! On a typical day, I play a BBb sousaphone, a 6/4 CC tuba and a small EEb. I have more problems adjusting to each horn's unique sound, variable flow rate, and idiosyncracies of pitch than I do with fingerings. I may have difficulty in performance switching if it is music I have not adequately prepared. Best advice...practice.
