So I just picked up FT this week. Did a tutorial on YouTube, worked on an exact cover for a while, but wanted to play around more than copy.
So I stole my brother's bagpipe sheet music to Amazing Grace (simple, famous melody, simple chord progression) and started setting up to make it sound as close to actual bagpipes as I could. (Turns out you can get pretty darn close!)
Bagpipe music has all these sweet grace notes that they do (called cuts, strikes, rolls, etc...) which are a lot more complicated in some cases than simple grace notes tend to be in most European music. I had a lot of fun setting up all the instruments to program in all the fun notes. In total, I made 11 instruments just get get the right starts for each note. A simple low-A drone in pulse 2 and the triangle channels, and it sounds surprisingly realistic!
I want to maybe add in VC6 instruments for the second verse -- tech it up a bit, add some percussion effects, etc... But I was so excited by how this ended up that I just felt like I had to share the WIP.

It is intentional. On real pipes, when you hit an A, it almost kind of hides the note, and there are other notes that clash more -- but the drones never change pitch.
