#10. Bagpipe Tuner for iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch
Australia’s Murray Blair once again innovates in the sound department with the world’s first handheld application for tuning Highland pipes. The $10.99 product available from iTunes for the first time makes a sophisticated tuner within reach of the majority of pipers, both from a hardware and cost perspective.
Excellent summary. Ending with a reminder of the good byes we had to say to the great characters and friends we share the love of the music with, puts it all in perspective. How lucky we are to love the pipes and share the music and our lives with such wonderful folk!
