piped
Sent through tubes
Piped describes something conveyed through pipes: piped water, piped gas.
Music or announcements transmitted through a sound system are piped in: They piped in Christmas carols.
Piped also describes decorative edging on fabric or frosting applied through a pastry bag: a cake with piped roses.
A piped voice is high and thin, like air through a pipe.
