Introducing the WARBL - Trying An 'Electronic' Tin Whistle.

[@Artotunion]

Yes! I just moved into a zero-privacy city apartment building where we are packed in and you can hear everything. I haven't played since because I'm afraid of hitting the higher notes. I'm definitely buying this to practice.

[@CutiepieTinWhistle]

MacNaughton Creative it would be perfect for that! It's difficult to get used to at first, but what isn't?! I have whistles I still can't play properly 🤣 but you can't fault it for silent practice. Just need a little time to understand the settings 😂

[@supervillain7424]

Thanks!! Great tip!

[@FiddlingwithmyWhistle]

Cool.... I have had mine for a few weeks now... Loving it.

[@jimleeper9622]

Just got one 2 weeks ago, and so far I love it. I use it with "Celtic Sounds" on my iPhone. There are some issues trying to change key with the configuration tool, but the app handles it quite well. There are other apps that handle the output of the configuration tool better but "Celtic Sounds" has the most life like whistle. It also does a great Uilleann Pipes. I am able to practice as much as I want without disturbing the rest of the family. If I need more volume if I'm playing with others, a small Bluetooth speaker gives me all that I need.

[@skylukewalker5433]

So cool, I've been looking for something like this for years!

[@thtpst7827]

Im so getting one of those so I can practice after work without it being so loud... This is so awesome

[@mattk6719]

To anyone wanting to practice silently: Block the input of your whistle with your bottom lip and instead blow down into the blade. It will be next to silent but still play the notes.

[@kittygoddess4477]

I just tried that trick........totally works! You just became my hero! ~ :^)

[@MarijnvdZaag]

Pretty nice for quiet practice indeed. Is it possible to play more than one octave this way though? I'm not able to do so on my Clarke.

[@peggythompson8519]

Thanks for that info, I live in a place with very little soundproofing between suites and have roommates, This trick works well enough (can't get to 2nd octave) until I can save up the $$$ for an electronic version.

[@MadCapMag]

You can't do this anywhere with ambient noise, like on transport, as you can't hear what you're playing.

[@Scared_Together]

[@truthercymraeg5168]

Awesome I love it. Probably out of my price range though so I'll just have to annoy the neighbours. One of them asked me if I knew how to play the song far away, the further the better😂

Very interesting! Thanks, Stephanie. I always learn from and enjoy your videos.

[@mheermance]

It was surreal when you played and the music box sound came out. But overall the Warbl is really neat, and I am seriously tempted. While I play piano and have a MIDI keyboard, I am more comfortable with the whistle as an instrument.

[@linhuskun]

Wow, this is just amazing! I loved it

[@almatka1]

Thank you Cutipie for The answer.. it is very kind of you that take seriously each comment. Really nice of you. if you want no one to hear Practicing this whistle could be usefull...I can understand that

[@calvinchong8740]

Here's a link to my attempt at Gabriel's Oboe using the Warbl. I'm working on the breath control to make it much more precise. You can see that it really knocked the breath out of me because I was trying to maintain the high notes (which require you to overblow). It is really a fantastic instrument which you can fit in your pocket! Thanks CutiePie for getting us started on this journey!

[@calvinchong8740]

@@fgerv O yes, I didn't add it. Here it is - I intentionally wanted to post a one take video to illustrate that you need to work on familiarizing yourself with the instrument and I didn't want to pick an easy first song to play. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2XVp5eBgsp1e5Y

[@MerakiPLyhne]

OMG I need this! It sounds so much fun!

[@camelCased]

Thanks for the video. WARBL seems to be so much more than a tin whistle. It's the most configurable open-source software/hardware USB MIDI wind instrument out there. So you can play any synthesizer you want. It's even much more customizable than big brand products (Akai EWI Solo and Roland Aerophone Go) which cost much more. However, brand products have more keys and built-in sounds (which usually are not as good as standalone hardware / software synths anyway).

[@n3v3rg01ngback]

Can’t wait to get one!

[@calvinchong8740]

Great work. I’ve been playing around with a friend’s WARBL and totally love it. Just ordered one from Andrew. In the meantime, I’ll be making some videos with the Warbl. I’ve always wanted to play the oboe and the viola and now I can! Have been exploring iOS apps. So far, I find ThumbJam, iSymphonic, and Oriental Strings quite nice. Still looking out for other apps for iOS. ThumbJam allows you to loop and record tracks you can play the Warbl with.

[@isabelleraby4779]

I would agree with Jim Leeper, it's much easier to use the Warbl on an iPhone (an old one with a phone jack will do the trick) and the Celtic Sounds app has a fairly realistic whistle sound. I have also used it on a OnePlus 5 Android phone with FluidSynth and it did not sound as good but it worked absolutely fine. Andrew Mowry is extremely helpful and reactive if you have any technical issues with the device, either on the Warbl forum or his Facebook page. All the blu-tack on the blade and so-called "quiet whistles" just do not compare with the experience of practicing on the Warbl. Yes, it's expensive but it's saved my marriage, my dogs' ears and my son's exams results - well worth the investment 😁

Very interesting, I originally skipped the whistle because off the high pitch sound level when practicing, tiring for family and surrounding. I am looking forward to at longer review regarding playability and sound quality 😊👍

[@calvinchong8740]

Benny .kolbe I played Gabriel’s oboe at a public performance using my regular tinwhistle but the whistle failed at the highest note. I just tried playing Gabriel’s oboe with the Warbl with the Reeds sound on iSymphonic app. It was just a dream. No issue hitting the high note. It was the best thing that has happened in the windcontroller front. One thing though. Apple devices use the lightning port. You need to connect the Warbl to your iOS device via the Apple connector kit. Unfortunately, you can’t connect your headphones along with the Warbl - the set up just doesn’t allow you to do that. Grrr!!!

[@CutiepieTinWhistle]

Benny .kolbe it doesn't actually make any sound on its own, so the sound quality will all depend on the app you chosen and the device you're playing through.

[@toms8466]

If this has hurdy gurdy settings it would be an immediate buy from me, still considering it for a while for home practice purposes. Defintitly a good product to know about, thanks!

[@CutiepieTinWhistle]

Tom S I'm sure one of the apps we have hurdy gurdy sound, but that's nothing to do with the WARBL, as it doesn't make any sound on its own, that's purely the app or software you choose. As for playing it like a hurdy gurdy i'm not sure... You could attach the bagpipe bellows as the 'drone' maker and cover holes like you're playing strings I guess...but you'd have to find the notes in a different way, as it's not designed to play like a string instrument...

[@JonathanDevine]

MIDI is just commands for notes and timing. The software determines the instrument. You could have 20, you could have 200. Just depends on the software. I'm no expert but I highly suspect some software packages would let you plug in additional instruments from third parties.

[@jantonisito]

New version is out. It sells for $290 which actually is not a lot for a quality EWI.

[@Connorlowwhistle]

[@KiltedKrusader]

What an incredible little device! I wish it were cheaper so we could all access it but I'm so stoked for the wild range of sounds you'll have access to in the future. Any chance you'll incorporate warm pad and/or bagpipes into future songs? That would simply be amazing! Thanks for the share! As always, happy whistling.

[@CutiepieTinWhistle]

Essentially it could replace all your instruments in one, so in that respect it's pretty good value! May need to sell a few things fits to generate the funds though! I paid more for my Mkpro low D and it does a lot less 😂🤣 but yes, as for the fun sounds, of course, certainly planning to! 😊

Are you kidding me? The next cheapest wind controller on the market is the EWI USB at $300. And this is a hand-assembled unit with a lot of research and development behind it (and continuing development, by the way). This is much more than a "practice whistle"

[@SRXAltered]

@@razzorbladz the Warbl is ridiculously cheap for what it is. With the bag attachment, It can emulate Uilleann Pipes, Scottish Great Highland Bagpipes, Spanish Gaita bagpipes, Kavals, Native American Flutes, Northumbrian Pipes and Recorders in addition to Tin Whistle. For comparison sake, in the realm of Electronic Bagpipes, a set of Uilleann Vpipes is 1290 Euros, and a Great Highlands Redpipes set is can range from 800-1400 Euros, and neither have the versatility that the Warbl has.

Thus is what I was looking for!! I can't practice my tin whistles rn and it makes me mad

[@calvinchong8740]

I am really intrigued by the range of comments about the Warbl's use and price. I guess for those who love their traditional instruments, it would seem extremely expensive. For those who are constantly exploring how to expand their capabilities with electronic sounds, the WARBL is a simple, small, and extremely helpful piece of professional equipment what you can use professionally. Instead of thinking of it as an expensive electronic version of the $10 tinwhistle for quiet practice, think of it as a midi windcontroller which allows you to play new exotic sounds, replace an entire brass section, or allow one who only plays the tinwhistle to play the instrument you never got to learn when you were a kid! For musicians making a living, it cuts down their costs substantially, and it opens up amazing new windows. I would be extremely unfair to complain about how expensive it is for the purpose of playing silently to yourself. That wouldn't be the only use. In fact, those of you who use the Warbl with the ipad/iphone know that you cannot connect your headphones to your new iphone/ipad once the Apple Camera Kit is attached. You cannot play it silently to yourself with the iphone/iPad. You can only do it with the old iphones/Pads which still have the 3.5mm jack or if you are connected to your computers using a DAW like GarageBand, etc. Berklee recently recoginised Electronic Digital Instruments (EDIs) as a valid instruments kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHuymYqBgcRpfLc - so do recognize that the Warbl is actually an addition to the cutting edge developments in the music scene. Now the instrument you need to perform on the big stage can be fit into your pocket. To me, that is nothing short of amazing - and all for $250! That's why I'm grateful @CutiePie featured this for us. It just happens that I have my friend's Warbl in my possession and am exploring its use for myself with its maker Andrew so I'm actually quite excited about the project. Credits too to @Michael Eskin for your contribution to the Warbl's development.

[@aa6757]

How interesting

[@folkorchestraukuleleoxford6374]

I've watched dozens of videos about the Warbl, but not one tells me how to put the sound through an actual PA system. I assume (?) that I need another lead that goes from the i|Pad or phone into the PA system, but many phones have just one USB input (used for the Warbl) and a headphone jack. So how can I use the Warbl for a live show through a PA system? I'm sorry if this is an ignorant question - there's probably a simple solution!

[@CutiepieTinWhistle]

The warbl plugs into the USB port of a tablet or phone (the same port it charges through) and the sound comes out through the audio jack (where you'd usually plug in headphones). If you can plug the PA system, or a speaker into the audio jack, you should be good to go. You may also be able to play sound out through bluetooth - like you do through a bluetooth speaker :)

[@folkorchestraukuleleoxford6374]

@@CutiepieTinWhistle Thank you very much for your swift reply. Using bluetooth may not be a good idea because of latency (delay). I'll try through the audio jack, but this, I assume, depends on the quality of the phone - i.e. it being a good stereo jack. Again, thanks.

Hello. my english is not very good so I will ask you some questions that you may have already answered in the video. this tool has 7 holes. Do you have the same fingering as the recorder? Do the high notes occur by blowing harder or otherwise? Is the force with which you blow comparable to that of the tin whistle? Thanks a lot!

[@CutiepieTinWhistle]

You can set it to play like recorder, yes. The high notes occur by blowing harder, yes. You can set the sensitivity yourself. It comes with two mouthpieces, one solid and one vented, so it depends which one you use. Also as you can change the sensitivity, it's further adjustable. It's not too different to playing whistle, but it's more difficult in my opinion. It takes time to get used to.
