How long have you been playing? because to be honest it isnt to bad, ulthough the drones are very much out of tune, which throws of the rest of the song. I also liked starwars at the end, is my favourtie ;) but all in all is a good start, keep practicing basic techniques and your breathing and the pressure on your bag as it sounds a little wavey if you get what i mean

@lkloudy Thank You for encouraging me by your kind words, well it's been recorded over a year ago, I upgraded my skills a little bit, by solving most of the problems that were counted here. I do not really practice, because I only have You tube as an elementary... it's not much as for that hard instrument, but still, I beleive thank to hints like yours i can do something about it:) cheers

Well played tunes. Your drones were out of tune and your ending cut off needs work. All in all, you played well. Keep practicing.

Best regards from America

thx very much 4 encouragin me, apreciate your comment. I actually know the drones were out of tune cos the bass pin slided down a little bit, I need to hemp it more. And I wasn't meant to do cut-off that time, cos for some reason I love to end with the drones sound, i know it may sound stupid, anyway I've heard that cut off is kinda military way ending, is that true?

Może jedynie górne dźwięki przydałoby się dopracować oklejając dziurki taśmą, ale też problem może być dlatego, że stroik nie był przed nagraniem rozchodzony. Poza tym ćwicz strike-in i cut-off i pilnuj tempa. Dobra, nagadałem, ale i tak grasz lepiej niż ja, gdy zaczynałem ;]

Pozdrawiam,

Piotrek

dzięki Peter, wersja robocza, by było co komentować:) drony niestety zaztykją mi się gdy chcę adjustować medium reed, a tak jk teraz ten pin zjechał to dlatego że jest obluzowany w tym miejscu trochę:/ tempo sam jak słyszę na nagraniu to widzę, że czasami trochę mnie poniosło :x

WOW, nice set of pipes, the chanter sounds great!!! Do you have notes of the last tune in pdf or so, would like to learn it, too.

And when the the drones will be tuned it will be sound much more better!

There are pipers who sell lessons via webcam. Jori Chisholm is a champion who was one of the first to do this so if you're stuck in Poland without an instructor contact him at bagpipelessons(dot)com

Nie ma sprawy! Stroik medium na początek to niezbyt dobry wybór, bo drony potrzebują wtedy więcej powietrza, żeby się właśnie nie zatkać, gdy dmuchniesz mocniej, by chanter uruchomić. Spróbuj może skądś dorwać easy stroik, bo wtedy też będziesz mógł nastawić drony na mniejsze spożycie powietrza i wygodniej będzie ci się grało ;) Wystarczy ohempować w takim razie piny. Mój bas też się kiedyś składał przez za małą ilość hempu.
