🎹 Revolutionary Regulator System – Play Like a Real Piper

One of the most distinctive elements of the Uilleann Pipes is the regulators — harmonic accompaniment pipes traditionally played with the wrist while performing the melody.

In this library:

🎹 A dedicated keyboard range allows you to perform regulator chords effortlessly
🎼 Play harmonies naturally with your left hand, just like on a piano
🎶 Achieve authentic accompaniment without technical complexity

The result? True-to-life Irish textures with intuitive workflow.

🔑 No Tonal Limitations – Full Chromatic Freedom

Traditionally, Uilleann Pipes are tuned to the key of D, limiting harmonic flexibility. Not here.

✨ Choose any key or tonality
✨ Extended chromatic regulator range
✨ Freedom for modern compositions and advanced arrangements

This makes the library ideal for film scoring, orchestral fusion, game soundtracks, and contemporary folk productions.
