The Pitch Pipe Bagpipe Tuner is real-time pitch detection tuning software for the Great Highland Bagpipe. Getting musical sound input from a conventional microphone, the Pitch Pipe tuner shows the tuning status of the instrument and displays the performed note on a stave and a graphic of a chanter at the same time.
The scale of the modern Great Highland Bagpipe differs from the scales used by most Western instruments. The Pitch Pipe Tuner’s simple interface allows anyone to easily and exactly tune the bagpipes to any desired temperament without guesswork.
Pipe Bands and other ensemble groups will find that using the Pitch Pipe tuner will GREATLY increase the precision of their tuning, as the software acts as an unwavering and absolute reference that members can tune to before and during rehearsals.
