What is Bagpipes Pro? Description of Bagpipes Pro

Bagpipes Pro is five extremely realistic sounding sets of bagpipes for the iPad that are played using standard Scottish piping fingerings.

The instrument may be transposed up to +/- one octave in semitone increments as well as tuned up to +/- 50 cents.

It includes five authentic sounding sets of Scottish, Irish, and Swedish bagpipes.

The five sets of bagpipes are:

Great Highland Scottish Bagpipes - The most popular Scottish marching pipes, in the traditional key of Bb.

Scottish Border Pipes - A Scottish smallpipe in the key of A with a sound distinctly different from but similar to the Highland pipes.

Scottish Smallpipes - A Scottish smallpipe in the key of A, one octave lower than the Border Pipes, and has a rounder, bubbly sound.

Irish Uillean Pipes - Bellows blown pipes in the key of D

Swedish Säckpipa - A set of Swedish bagpipes in E, with a very haunting sound.

All of the instruments use fingerings based on the standard Scottish Highland bagpipes chanter.

IMPORTANT: Since this app requires as many as 8 fingers on the screen at the same time, before playing, disable "Multitasking Gestures" on your iPad (in the Settings app, under the General section, turn the Multitasking Gestures switch to the off position).

Start/stop the drones playing by touching the drone puck. Select standard or alternate drone note from the controls.

Use the Transpose slider to set the overall instrument transposition in semitones. Touch the transpose value to the left of the slider to reset the transposition to zero.

Use the Tuning slider to set the overall instrument tuning offset in cents. Touch the tuning value to the left of the slider to reset the tuning offset to zero.

To play the chanter, touch the bar at the top left with your left thumb. This bar is the hole normally on the back of a real chanter and must be covered for the lower notes to play.

Next, touch the top three holes of the chanter starting with the tips of your left index, middle, and ring fingers.

Finally, touch the bottom four holes of the chanter with the tips of your right index, middle, ring, and little fingers.

Touch the "i" to show/hide the live performance controls.

Touch the "?" for on-screen help.

Bagpipes Pro Pros

Sound optionsI'm not a piper, but I think this app needs a closed fingering option (one finger off the chanter at a time). Also, this app needs the Bohemian bock, Northumbrian smallpipes, and kaba gaida as sound options. Thanks!.Alden VinesVersion: 4.1

Great way to explore the world of bagpipes!I don't know what Magpipe is doing wrong, but I'm the developer of the app and able to play all kinds of pipe tunes on the app without any problem. I'm primarily a Uilleann piper and have found the app a great way to explore both Scottish and Sweedish piping traditions. The Scottish bagpipes sounds, from ePipes.co.uk, are the best I've heard on any platform which is why I use them for the app. It's been a lot of fun playing Säckpipa tunes from the Olle Gällmo online tutorials. If you visit the app website, be sure to check out the links to drum corps files that you can download and play in the background on the iPad while playing tunes on the app. That is really fun. The app sounds great and is very quick and responsive..SeisiuneerVersion: 1.0
