@d-healey I'm definitively interested. Let me get used to audio coding first. (I'm a java developer originally)

@d-healey what library is it? I'm interested in uilleann pipes too, since I have a half set and a v-pipes

Hello everybody

I'm new to Hise and I have a electronic bagpipe that is actually a midi controller. Now I want to record all my different bagpipes so I can play all sounds with one device on stage.
On the bagpipes you always have a continuous sound and you can transist between notes with sliding. My idea to achieve this is to do a crossfade between two pitched samples during pitchbend. (lat's say I go from a to b, near a it will be 80% uppitched a and 20% downpitched b. Near to b the sound more comes from the b sample)

Question 1:
Is this a good approach to make a instrument sound as real as possible?

Question 2:
If this is the way to go. How can I achieve this behaviour?

Question 3:
How could I use more samples between notes? I could imagine to record 2-3 samples between a and b and when I use pitchbend then crossfade over these. This would probably sound more realistic?

I'm open to any suggestions and help. Thank you in advance.
