@paraplegic_racehorse @Moosjazz @pluralistic Wut? I play recorder. It's a full 2 octave chromatic instrument, plus maybe one or two more notes on the high end if you're daring. That's around 25 notes. Highland pipes are diatonic instruments with an octave and a ninth range. You get 10 notes, that's it. Medieval bagpipes and most other folk bagpipes are also diatonic 1-octave instruments. So no, bagpipe fingering is way simpler than recorders.
