Deep in the valley in concrete building built into the hillside, with Security Guards are as the eye can see.
The Jubilee Instruments Research and Development Center has developed a whistle headjoint with three fipples.
A freak of nature, definitely it is.
What’s it like, loud, loud, loud. But don’t expect to put one one your Low-D. The combines areas of the three openings does some really strange effects on Low-D’s. Maybe I don’t have enough breath for that note.
Wide open with no tonebody, the pitch is loud, clean and clear. It would probably make a great headjoint for a calliope.
No, 3 fipples as not better than one.
The side view reminds me of a radiation hazard sign. Warning - Nuclear Whistles.
That is actually very cool. Getting the three voices to match must be incredibly hard. I am always impressed at the new experiments that you come up with.
Yeap, another Bingamon’s Monster!!! Anywho, in other news, how might your chromatic high whistle be coming along??? Haven’t heard about that in a while.
P.S. Nice idea with the CPVC altos. I always love the sounds of PVC.
2 Windways, it might work. I like that comment about doing it in High-G - I don’t want to get charged for causing someones hearing loss.
Getting them to match isn’t as difficult as it looks. They all work together.
I just had to try it out, I’ve been curious about whether an all around whistle fipple would work or not and the 3 fipples test was a good way to test the theory.
Could always put a funnel on the entrance and mount it on the car.
Or maybe the Undisputed One could power it using his Lear Jet.
It was fun…
On the Chromatic High whistle, I have cast two keys but I’m not happy with the casting. I need to make a new mold.
PS, If you ever try to make a double tabor pipe (one that is played on the same pipe but the first octave is done with one hand and the second octave on the other) please tell us.
(that is the only thing that I can think of that you haven’t made.)
