I just wanted to add that on 3-valve compensators, the extra tubing is introduced when the third valve is used in combination with other valves. The third valve alone on a 3-valve BBb comp. tuba will give you a true 1 1/2 step and it is used in place of the 1-2 combination. The extra tubing will add the necessary "flatness" for the 1-3 and 1-2-3 combinations to be in tune.
