Banton Contrabass set with Smallpipe chanter

Play your drones on your lap! This is a set of my most current Border pipe drones played with a Smallpipe chanter. I play the tune once through with tenor and bass and then bring in the contrabass. We've been slowly changing the design of the bass and tenor drones to better blend with the Contrabass drone, and due to the robust sound of our smallpipe chanter, these drones now sound amazing with the smallpipe chanter. So amazing that I wanted to share the sound. Until this iteration of a set with contrabass, I thought the contrabass was only for Border pipes. Nope. The Contrabass really showcases qualities of the smallpipe chanter that a tenor and bass set can't quite do. I still love my set without it's contrabass, but these drones are a step above for sure. Also, due to several factors, not the least of which includes the large hollow "main stock" (drone stock), these drones exhibit a phenomenon most often called "Phase Locking" or "Frequency locking". It's something I previously referred to as "a myth that some Highland pipers believe in". It is not a myth, though it definitely seems like magic. It is most strong between the tenor and bass. It's as if the two drones are strongly magnetic to each other. If both drones are playing, you can move one and the other follows it. You can literally move the bass drone tuning pin three eights to half an inch without the two drones going out of tune from each other. It's crazy! The benefit of this is that playing pressure doesn't effect the magnetized drones. They stay locked together. I make super stable drone reeds which stay in tune together, but this is something else entirely. I am now, like Will Woodson, a proponent of playing smallpipe and Border pipe drones on the leg. I know it isn't "traditional", but there are several good reasons that recommend it. Firstly is that inevitable drone waver from the drones flapping about is eliminated. Secondly, the drone weight is mostly transferred to the leg, making for a more comfortable and healthy instrument (especially good for those of you, despite pleading from your chiropractor, who play with the drones perched on your right shoulder). And lastly, this phase locking thing really comes out with an extra large hollow stock, which would be too big to be played in the "traditional" manner. And to conclude, I really love these drones! And please excuse the loud foot tapping. The mic was on the floor and despite taking my shoes off, my tapping really comes through. (and, yes, I forgot and left the autofocus on the camera on) And lastly, we'll soon have a design of smallpipe drones with a contrabass. It will be similar to this, but tweaked to best match the smallpipe. www.natebanton.com
