Various end blown flutes were used during this time. I don't know that recorders were used during the whole time, but they were definitely used for much of it. Flageolets were also used, as were other instruments of this type.

Side blown flutes might not have been used in Europe as early as 600, and I have seen articles indicating they were not. It is hard for me to believe, however, because they existed in prehistory elsewhere.

Panpipes were used throughout the time.

Pipes of the time included hornpipes, shawms, and crumhorns.

Bagpipes of various kinds were probably used during the entire period.

Some of the horns, such as the cornetto, were made of wood and had holes so they could be fingered like recorders. I mention this because they looked like woodwinds even though they were sounded by lip vibration.
