MLP104: MadLab Electronic Kit - Bagpipes
Bagpipes is an audio oscillator kit similar to the MLP110 MadLab Electronic Kit - Wonky Wire. The Bagpipes kit is, however, capable of producing eight different tones from about 5kHz (5000 cycles per second) down to about 300Hz.
To use the Bagpipes, the stylus wire is moved up and down the network of resistors R1 to R8 which make up the keyboard. The voltage at the end of the stylus changes as each keyboard resistor is touched in turn.

Bagpipes Kit review by The Doctor on 8/23/2017Doesn't sound like Bagpipes, thank God, but it is fun. I connected the stylus to 8 Momentary push button switches, then the switches to the individual resistors, so now I can play it like an organ. I like it better with the buttons, a lot more creative in the sounds.
I'm not sure if I would by this kit again or not. I might recommend it, but mention that it doesn't sound like Bagpipes.
