Nice video, but I'm confused about something. You say to bring the bridle down to (I think) shorten the drone reed tongue and that doing so will cause the drones to tune lower on the tuning pin. Isn't it the opposite? If i make the reed more air-efficient, it's going to sharpen it, thus requiring the drone to tune higher on the pin (i.e., flatter). No?

I see your point. My explanation wasn't quite clear. When you move the bridle down the tongue (towards the top of the reed), this will decrease the amount of air required to make the reed sound, hence making it sharper. So, yes, you are correct that it will mean you have to tune the drone a bit higher (just a bit) so that the drones are in tune with the chanter (assuming that the chanter and drones were already in tune). Thanks for checking!

@@KyleBantaMusic Thanks for that. I guess we all should standardize the nomenclature. If my teacher says "that bass is tuning too high," I have to use context to determine if he means "sharp relative to the chanter" or "too much altitude on the tuning pin." Bagpipes are a linguistic minefield.

I have been given a b flat chanter for an event but when I strike in my drones start double toning as if I am hitting the bag to hard even when I try to hit with much less power. Any ideas on how I could fix this.

Try lowering the bridle on your drone reeds. Double toning results from the drones taking too much air.

Im struggling with my tenors being a higher squeal rather than striking in with their intended sound.
@KyleBantaMusic Жыл бұрын
Sounds like they are taking too much air. My bass will squeal if the reed is too open or my drone is too high up on the tuning pin.
