ePipes has released version 2.0 of Studio Piper, the Bagpipe virtual instrument formerly known as "The Fred Morrison Sound".
Studio Piper is a complete virtual bagpipe system but functions just as well as a stand-alone VST instrument plug-in. It has been developed with world renowned, gold medalist, multi-award-winning piper, Fred Morrison, and the Centre for Music Technology at The University of Glasgow, Scotland. Each stage of the production was personally overseen by Fred, working along-side former Tom Oberheim engineer, Bill Evans. Studio Piper delivers an authentic virtual bagpipe from the world's leading piper and the home of piping.
Features:
- All samples are played by Fred Morrison on his own instruments.
- Play Highland Pipes, Border Pipes, Scottish Small Pipes and Uillieann Pipes.
- Transpose to any key over a two octave range.
- Built in reverb.
- Upgradeable sample sets, new instruments and features to come.
- Long drone samples provide phasing and variation that define the real sound of the pipes, while remaining perfectly in tune.
- Adjustable chanter mellow. Choose your sound: piercing and rousing; or sweet and mellifluous.
- Compatible with all MIDI input devices.
Studio Piper is available for Windows as a VST instrument plug-in. It costs £75 (excl. VAT). Download and boxed versions are available.
