ePipes Drones App Reviews

When playing the chanter by itself... you need to push twice on the drone to stop everything...

Would like to see a "double tap" feature on the keys as an update.

There is a known problem with this app crashing at startup. The developer says he is working on it. Until it is fixed I would avoid upgrading to iOS4 or wait for the fix. Crashes at startup 4/5 times for me. Once it sticks its alot of fun and sounds nice (at least if you like pipes, and you wouldnt want it if you didnt)

Im very impressed with Mr. Eskins work. The app is well sampled, and plays very smoothly--and more important, its fun. I gave it only four stars because currently it lacks the ability to tune the pipe. Its very well in tune with itself, but if you want to play along to music in your library, an ability advertized in the app description, even highland pipe music, you need to be able to tune your e-pipe to match. Overall, excellent app. Keep up the good work, sir!

Great app with high quality sound, easy to play - with fast, friendly support! hard to stop playing once you start! looking forward to update with keyboard in G - what a blast!! MH

Good app for playing with Scottish highland sounds, no crashes or bugs. New keyboard layout is exactly as expected from Scottish notation. Playing with easy mode off is also quite fun, since you can play a nice minor third interval (not available on real pipes - fun to have a different scale to play with). Overall really fun app to help work out real melodies with a good highland pipe sound. Developer was very receptive and quick to improve this app, keep these apps coming Micheal.

Great app..but It would be even more great if there was a higher octave. Def.worth the money

Ive played real bagpipes for 2 years. These drones sound nothing like real drones. Sounds electric and fake. At least try to make the drones sound different. Like real pipes. Please.
