peeb – Your customisable electronic bagpipe chanter.
peeb allows you to play the bagpipes on your mobile phone and tablet.
Any time, any place.
peeb places a broad variety of piping traditions in your pocket – wherever you are, whenever you want. The Scottish great Highland bagpipe and its associated practice chanter, the German Hümmelchen, the so-called German “Marktsack” and its associated practice chanter, the pan-European Shepherd’s bagpipe, the Bohemian Bock, the Scottish smallpipe and Border pipe as well as the Asturian Gaita – the sound library of peeb includes all of them and we continue to add new bagpipe sounds for you.
peeb naturally allows you to play any of these sounds with its associated fingering system. However, you can combine any of these sounds with a fingering system of your choice (open, half-closed and closed) – literally allowing you to dive into the soundscapes of many diverse bagpipe traditions with the fingering-system you already know.
All of our videos are hosted on Youtube. Youtube can collect your personal data if you click the thumbnail of the video above.
