Hello,
Would any of you know of a good way to synthesize a bagpipe sound? I suppose
there might be some bagpipe samples but would be interested in approaching
the sound synthetically.
I once made an attempt on my Roland D50 (yes, years ago...) but found it
quite difficult to get but just a convincing result.
Well, here's an amazing amount of info on the sonic theory and tuning
behind the Highland Pipes:

So maybe that's a start to thinking about the synthesis...
I prefer to use a controller (like ePipes or Akai wind controller)
against samples otherwise it just doesn't sound realistic.
