Diple, dvojnice or dvojanke (pluralia tantum) are a traditional woodwind musical instrument in Serbian music and Croatian music.
Diple is a flute, but quite specific in that it is made in double (hence the name): it has a double mouthpiece, two windways, two labiums and two pipes, one played by the left, and the other one by the right hand. Usually the right hand plays the melody while the left follows it with bass.
Bagpipes also exist which use diple as their chanter.
