World famous Electronic Bagpipes since 1998
These fine musical instruments have the exact same fingering as the Great Highland Bagpipe, and enable both beginners and professionals to fit in valuable practice sessions virtually anyplace, anytime. Using the built-in speaker, the Electronic Bagpipes can be used to entertain a crowd, or pop in headphones to tackle that challenging new tune any time of the day or night.
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!
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!
If you want to add a little spice to your strathspey, or a little rock to your reel – just click on the ‘auto harmony’ feature for perfectly blended seconds ! Drones on or off? No problem – you can select this too.
All round – the Ross Technologies Electronic Bagpipes are a must have for every piper !
The Ross Technologies Original Style Electronic Bagpipes were the first Electronic Bagpipes to feature all-digital circuitry and the ability to play in different keys. These pipes have a toggle style power switch and a rotary volume control, with built-in speaker.
The Ross Technologies MicroPipes play in the standard bagpipe key of “B flat” (A=470Hz) without drone accompaniment. The notes are played in a very realistic manner, by covering electronic touch sensors, positioned to exactly match the finger spacing of a regular pipe chanter.
These pipes may be set to play an automatic harmony accompaniment (seconds) if desired. The unit may be easily configured to turn on with or without drones, and will save the last volume setting used. They will also automatically shut down after a period of non-use to conserve battery power.
The sound is produced from actual Great Highland Bagpipe samples stored in a wavetable for an accurate and realistic playing experience.
The pipes are activated by a touch sensor on the top corner of the chanter, allowing either hand or chin activation with no switch to get in the way !
