At last! A bagpipe for the 21st Century,




How many times have you wished you could get a realistic bagpipe sound in your electronic music? Never? Well, me neither. But they've gone and made them anyway.

Technopipes are advanced electronic bagpipes, with MIDI output for controlling sampled instruments. It's like Kraftwerk doing a Highland fling.

"But no MIDI bagpipe is complete without a quality sound source to trigger," I hear you cry. Well worry not!

Epipes is here with 'The Fred Morrison Sound'. It's a software-based virtual bagpipe allowing you to play the Highland pipes, Uilleann pipes, Border pipes and Scottish Smallpipes.

And it comes with bonus freeware, including a virtual recording studio, flutes, whistles, fiddles and more.

Drone on!
