GlenCoe Bagpipes Electronic Chanter

Product Information

MIDI. Connect to an iPad, PC so you can continue playing ‘bagpipe fingering’ but generate the sounds of 1000’s of other instruments via Midi instrument. For example Garageband. I play a Deger I for several years now and many of my smaller 'problems' have obviously been solved with this iteration, e.g. the on-/off-switch is not a sensor anymore. Also the additional sounds are more than a 'nice to have' The battery will be included within the top part of the Chanter. The new model will be about 5 centimetres (2 inches) shorter since there is no battery compartment at the bottom. I live in a small apartment and this is a great option to practice while not disturbing my neighbours. I can change key, if I want, and generally control tuning and volume. I haven't tried the MIDI output yet, but I'm really interested in saving audio files to my computer in the future. You can plug in your headphones so no one disturbs your practice session, or connect the chanter to speakers for all to hear! Earbud headphones included.

Perfectly tuned chanter scale and drones by usage of crystal oscillator and microprocessor control. Based in Windsor, Ontario, Canada – we have been a leader in the design and manufacture of affordable quality Electronic Bagpipes for over two decades, with instruments shipped to every continent on the globe! The battery will NOT be included within the top part of the Chanter. The new model will be about 5 cm (2 inches) shorter since there is no battery compartment at the bottom. Fagerstroem 2nd Generation Technochanter Electronic Chanter. Now with drone sound !The new 2nd Generation Technochanter is now available and the great news is that it now has drone sound included. In addition, it comes with two chanter sounds options, Great Highland bagpipes and Scottidsh Small Pipes. Blair Digital Chanter produces Great Highland Bagpipe, Scottish Smallpipe and practice chanter sounds, which are all genuine with a rich full tone and in-tune to the drones recorded in a real-life piping environment to further enhance the authenticity of the instrument without any synthesizing or colouring. Even the metronome includes actual percussion sounds with eight different beat patterns. There are actual holes on the Blair Digital Chanter, a true instrument just like the traditional. What you can do with this chanter is simply amazing.As a beginning student of the bagpipe, I am very pleased with the ease of just making notes come out of the pipe. It simplifies the learning process, compared to the Naill practice chanter I started with. One thing you should offer in your catalog is a good quality mini stereo speaker to be able to play with an instructor or other students. If stage performance is your thing, well … then jam away … we have got you covered ! Ross Technologies Electronic Bagpipes can be ‘programmed’ to play in seven different keys to match other instruments such as guitars, fiddles keyboards – you name it! The drone volume is variable and can also be turned off. Switch between the sound of Highland Pipes or Smallpipes. Left, Right and Centre positioning of individual bagpipe elements in your audio mix. Output and Battery

A bit expensive but great for practising at home in the living room -- without disturbing my wife, cats and dogs! As others have mentioned, you have to keep your hands moist or the pads on the chanter won't sense your fingers. Since I live in a dry climate (Yellowknife) I have to keep a bottle of hand lotion nearby while I'm practising but that's not a big deal. Ross Technologies Electronic Bagpipes are based on cutting-edge crystal controlled digital technology – which means no tuning up is ever required ! Sensitive electronic touch sensors detect the position of your fingers on the chanter, and trigger the corresponding note – using the exact same finger positioning as a regular chanter – no extra holes or ‘common’ sensors are required to make these beauties play away!
