This electronic bagpipe is made up of a professional electronic chanter and a traditional bag.
It is played in the traditional way although it does not physically have the drone, which is included in the sound of the instrument.
It has a pressure sensor sensitive to air.
You can start the drone and the chanter separately.
The notes vary with the pressure on the bag, making the playing even more natural.
Includes 90º cable to take the signal output to the back of the bellows.
It works with or without air.
By exerting more pressure on the bag, you can access higher notes in Galician and Asturian fingering.
Complete configuration with the APP on Android or IOs through the free application Trino Config

The Xaphoon (pronounced "za foon") is an injection-moulded Xaphoon called "The Pocket Sax" in the key of C. The fingering is very similar to a recorder. It has a two octave chromatic range, and takes a tenor sax reed (included). It comes boxed, with instructions on how to play, a fingering chart, and further information about the instrument. The Xaphoon is for everyone who appreciates awesome sound of the saxophone but doesn't want to carry around a bulky instrument. Its sound falls somewhere between a saxophone and a clarinet, a much richer sound than its size would suggest. The experienced player will find the Xaphoon capable of all the subtle shadings and vibrant power of a saxophone. The beginner will find it fun and easy, and it's good practice for other reed instruments.
The Xaphoon is a small wind instrument similar to a sax. What is unique and truly new about the xaphoon is its intense and striking sound.
This is the original Xaphoon made of bamboo and made in Hawaii / USA Brian Wittman, its inventor
The lowest note is Do. It is very simple to play, and very handy and easy to carry. It is one of the smallest and most economical instruments within the family of reed wind instruments. Learning to play the XAPHOON is relatively easy, for both professionals and beginners.
