cruisinon2 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 If all else fails and you can't find someone to play the bagpipes for you, you can always just step on a cat...;) And just in case any of the perpetually offended are reading this, I actually like cats (we have 3), and no I don't step on them. It's just a bagpipe joke... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hideout Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 It's the Irish version of the bagpipe. A truly beautiful sounding instrument. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 A fallopian what?Lol... I actually know what those are. Similar to the bagpipes, but smaller, quieter (Saints be praised ;) ), and ***I believe*** they're a fully chromatic instrument, whereas as the bagpipes are not, which obviously limits what keys they can play in comfortably...if there's anything "comfortable" about the bagpipes. There's a reason the Scots (my forebearers, bless them ;)) used to blare those things at the enemy before the running them through with a broadsword... Incidentally, most of the "bagpipes" you hear on the Braveheart soundtrack are actually uilleann pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GadgetGuitar Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Nobody doing AC/DC It's a Long way to the top (if you want to rock n roll)? Would be killer to have a bagpipe patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fukuri Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 When I do that I use a whammy bar to bend up in octaves to simulate the drone coming up at different speeds As a Scot and a cat lover I'm horrified at the suggested animal abuse.

HonestOpinion Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I would love to see an optional synth pack with a whole array of instruments released at some point in the future of Helix's development cycle. Strings, brass, woodwinds, keys, synths, the works. I would be more than happy to pay for a software pack that would release me from my Roland GR-55! A Variax or hexaphonic pickup converted into the Midi inputs and you are off to the races! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo_Maina Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Do you remember the "big country" a 80's scottish pop band. They used two guitars like bagpipes arrangement. But not the sound only the riffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinon2 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If you are going to do Scotland the Brave at least learn the lollipop tune! Jesus Lol...well, as I recently learned in another thread about the world's only candle-powered guitar fx pedal (no, I'm not kidding), "weird and useless with the potential for disaster" is now synonymous with "creative and groundbreaking"...so with that in mind, let's call this rendition a "re-imagining". Welcome to the 21st century, where everything is valid and varying degrees of wonderful. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinon2 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Where are you from Cruisinon with all the great food?Lol...NY Mine was a totally tongue-in-cheek comment though. I was practically raised by my Scottish grandparents. Grew up on meat pies, bridies, and those currant pastries that granddad referred to as "fly cemeteries", lol. I miss all that stuff. Hard to find around here now. We used to have a Scottish bakery/deli that had it all...even haggis if you wanted it. Place is long gone now.

Gr9G Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Here's one I'm using for Long Way To The Top on Pod Go. Brit Plex Bright, lots of distortion 3 Note Generator - A3 SawUp, A4 SawUp, E4 SawDown, Volumes 1.2, short attack, short decay, Dry Level 10, Level +3 Chorus, lots of depth, triangle wave (default I think) Simple Delay, nice long stadium delay No charge. You've read through too much embarrassing cr@p to get this far. Drones don't sound that great on their own, but if you come in right on the first note of the solo, you'll amaze your audience and have a lot of fun.
