Hungarian Electric Bagpipe

your birds need to work on their timing

How does the chanter work? Does it use a contact like the deager chanter or some other mechanism? The finger articulation is great!

It is similar technology as the Ross and Deger chanters with the difference that the contact metal piece is a small brass tube section with the diameter of a tone hole. The chanter is a real wood bagpipe chanter, with real holes. The maker told me that the base unit supports Highland and Bulgarian/Macedonian chanters, too. I have seen pipers using this system with Croatian (gajde) and Bulgarian (gajda) chanters.

The unit supports the "Highland/Scottish" bagpipe system and fingering. The Hungarian chanter has the same number of holes as a Scottish chanter and the spacing is approximately the same as a D or C Scottish Smallpipe (SSP) chanter. The unit can be used in any pitch, therfore, it may be used as a practice/electronic SSP chanter.

that's brilliant, miklos! Does the flea hole give semitones tho? Couldn't work it out from this video. The Budgie certainly seemed to enjoy it though lol all the best, hope to meet again some time. Donald L

Hi Donald! Haven't seen you for ages. The fleahole gives the semitones, yes. The only note that cannot be produced with this electric chanter is G#, which can be done by half-covering the back/high A hole. A number of old and excellent Hungarian pipers used half covering holes extensively, this cannot be simulated with tis device. All the Best, Miki
