The WARBL MIDI controller is amazing! Combined with Appcordians' Uilleann Pipe app, I now have a fully digital MIDI uilleann pipe that sounds incredibly realistic! ALL the audio in this video is straight from the app (no additional audio processing) and you can see me playing it all on the WARBL.
Link to video!
Now to get it hooked up to a real uilleann pipe wind cap and fashion a bag for it...

Re: Review & play testing of the WARBL MIDI controller
Thanks for letting me know the link was not working. I've almost sorted the extra buttons out for regs now. This thing is great and that AppCordians app is about as good of an uilleann sound that I think one can do through MIDI (I bought and paid for the WARBL and app, so my opinion has not been purchased, FWIW.)

Re: Review & play testing of the WARBL MIDI controller
The Warbl is a really great device. I'd like to try it in Uilleann pipe mode but don't like playing it on my phone. Any suggestions on a good Uilleann sound lilbrary?

I use universal piper And the regulator app. I also use celtic sounds app with a 12 step foot controller
