About this app

The complete practice companion for Hindustani classical music students — tabla, tanpura, swar mandal, and metronome, all in one app.

Real tabla sounds generated on your device, no internet needed. Practice any of 16 taals: Teentaal, Tilwada, Sitarkhani, Chachar, Dhamar, Jhoomra,
Deepchandi, Ektaal, Chautaal, Sooltaal, Jhaptaal, Keherwa, Bhajani, Rupak, Dadra, and Dakshinatya Rupak.

Each taal has multiple authentic style variations. Set any tempo with just a tap. Transpose to all 12 keys so the tabla pitch matches your
instrument.

━━ PROGRESSIVE TEMPO TRAINING ━━
The best way to build speed. Set a start BPM, end BPM, step size, and measures per step or Time per step — Tirkit advances the tempo automatically with zero gap between
steps. Great for Practice building up stamina without interruption.

━━ TANPURA PRO ━━
Sample-based tanpura drawn from real recordings. Three tunings: Sa-Pa, Sa-Ma, and Sa-Ni (for Ma-komal ragas). Adjustable cycle length. You can run two
independent tanpura instances simultaneously for a fuller drone — ideal when practicing with a guru or student.

━━ SWAR MANDAL ━━
A harp-style strum drone tuned to your raga. Choose from 30 preset ragas across 10 thaats — including Yaman, Bhairav, Bhimpalasi, Darbari Kanada,
Bhairavi, Marwa, Todi, and more. Or build a fully custom swara set. Select aroha, avaroha, or alternating direction. Adjustable interval and strum
duration.

━━ METRONOME ━━
Precision click with 1–16 beats, per-beat accent control (muted / soft / medium / loud), and a built-in countdown timer. Practice mode advances BPM
automatically — works the same as tabla progressive training.
