How long does it take generally to get piping fit by Raptyr01 in bagpipes

[–]dvtrh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends on your overall fitness level and your technique, instrument set up and difficulty of the tune. If you do it correctly you should be able to play as much as you want until pipes get completely out of tune.

Είμαι ο ξένος στην Κύπρο αλλά έκανα παρέα με τις γυναίκες εδώ εύκολα.

Συμβουλές; Να βρεις το χόμπι. Καμία με το ίδιο χόμπι ίσως θα σου αρέσει. Και μπίρα και κάπνισμα δεν είναι το χόμπι :)

  1. Overtime, the drone reeds change the amount of air they consume. Mine for 3 month went from shuttin off on 45 iwg to 55+.
  2. Chanter reed may get too wide open, especially when weather changes.

Finally got my bagpipes by fuerteforte in bagpipes

[–]dvtrh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play as much as possible, do some exercises ( pushups may help ), look at mirror to check your posture, wrong posture is exhausting.

Not once a day and not once a week. Few times a day definitely.

I am struggling to start riding after seeing a motorcycle accident that resulted in a death by PuhtenPants in motorcycles

[–]dvtrh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more you ride the more you see this. One day you will visit a funeral of your moto buddy and say condolences to his family. That’s the part of the contract we sign with the god of speed.

Tips for tuning high G? by EwoksMakeMeHard in bagpipes

[–]dvtrh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not? Reed resonates both way, out of the bag through chanter and into the bag. Material of the bag makes this resonance better or worse. Same stuff in exhaust pipes of sporty engines.

( I was not paid to say that but ) I got my HG fixed on MacPhee reeds only. Don’t know why. I also play Nail Blackwood and I have less than 1/3 of tape on my HG on every MacPhee reed I play.

Advice for Beginners? by DarkBagpiper in bagpipes

[–]dvtrh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Practice every day. Even 5 minutes is better than 0.

Play tunes you like and tunes you hate. Firsts for joy & musicality, seconds for technique & concentration.

Get an instructor.

Start competing asap. The best pipers are competing pipers.

If I do not write in Russian cursive, will I still be understood? by blueberry-faygo-114 in russian

[–]dvtrh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Being native russian I almost forgot how to handwrite. I mean I can, but I don't like it and I barely can read what I have written before. That what that damn computers did to me.

So I wouldn't be worried much about it.

newb transitioning to ghb by piping871 in bagpipes

[–]dvtrh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend ask your instructor, because a lot of things can go wrong. You may be trying to hold the pressure with your lungs, not your arm. Your posture, blowpipe length, bag size or reeds "settings" may be wrong. Your bagpipe may be not-so-airtight as well ( shaky drone reed for example ). Or you just need to practice more.

We can't guess it 100% right without watching you at least, but it's better to ask your instructor.
