Uilleann pipe or bagpipe VST anyone?

Does anyone know of a good Uilleann (Irish) pipe VST or, failing that a bagpipe one?

I have this tune "The Lark's Lament" which just about everyone who has commented(including me, it has to be said) thinks would benefit from being played on a pipe - but all the ones in my collection of VSTs sound really thin and nasty and I'm not going to ruin a good tune with the wrong sound.

On the other hand, if I could find one that sounded rather fuller and richer I would definitely give it a go.

Any suggestions?

Bagpipe vst

If you find one, I want it! I've never come across anything like that.. Reason might have one

Ah no it doesn't.

Did you have a look at this http://www.soundsonline.com/Quantum-Leap-Colossus-pr-EW-164.html?

It's $595!!! I only want it for one tune!

There is a bagpipe on Edirol Virtual Sound Canvas but it is the most embarrassing sound I've ever heard and if anyone thinks I'm going to use that on a tune and stick it up on a site owned by a Scot they've got another think coming.

I'm willing to bet the EW one is brilliant but I can't justify £300 for it (sadly ).

Thanks anyway

Speaking as a Scotsman, you'd be as well making a loud 'honking' noise with your throat and singing the part, it'd probably sound better as well!! [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

No bagpipes! No bagpipes!

I've been chasing GreyBeard all over the site, blocking his attempts to add bagpipes. No more suggestions for them either, even very expensive ones.
