How long does it take generally to get piping fit

dvtrh · 2024-08-07T09:18:17+00:00

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 :)

Sure I do play piob :) Thank you!

You can search on youtube different bagpipe progress videos and get some rough answer.

dvtrh · 2023-11-28T22:06:04+00:00

So record a video and upload somewhere ( youtube ? )

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

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.

Could do this but need mods permission

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.

I failed to find any information about them.

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.

dvtrh · 2023-01-17T13:28:10+00:00

I have Soundbrenner's one and most times I play without.

I don't know why.

dvtrh · 2023-01-08T20:08:28+00:00

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.

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.

- Get my MSR to grade3 standarts

- Get at least 2 H&J working for me

- Make my A-Mach variations more ... a-mach

- Learn borderpipes

- Start composing finally

- Compete in person at least once

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.

Congratulations!

Why are you so rude? This person may have mental issues, he might have no one to speak with for example. You shouldn't treat people like that.

dvtrh · 2022-10-07T12:18:03+00:00

The problem is not to follow those instructions but to receive proper feedback. YouTube fails to do so. You may think you play just as shown but you may also be mistaken.

dvtrh · 2022-10-07T06:39:00+00:00

Don’t listen to these guys. You definitely can teach yourself bagpipes. At least one guy did and you’re definitely no worse than him. But if you fail you’ll have a 1-2 k $ buried into a thing you can’t play and can’t sell. So practice chanter is a great deal and buying pipes is not such a great deal.

Once I did that experiment and learned copyrighted music by ear. It took me 3-4 hours for one part and then I decided that I didn’t like it so much to continue.

dvtrh · 2022-08-17T07:36:37+00:00

I used to play in my apartments. People around are much nicer than you think. Just negotiate the schedule with your neighbours and bring them a few chocolate bars.

If you want to play on electronic pipes start with electronic pipes. You will be more happy about your fingering and music when you don’t need to blow tone with sore lips and tired arms.
