SwarShala is a wonderful tool for anyone interested in Indian
classical music, whether beginner or advanced, by providing
means of learning, practicing and composing this style of
music. Such a user will be able to create fully customized
practice sessions with the required instruments, cycles, pitch,
tempo, acceleration, etc... and select them to be played at
wish.
Fusion music composers
World music composers will also acknowledge
SwarShala as the best tool to create tracks of most Indian instruments for their compositions. Version
3.1 provides them with a Tracks view on which they can sequence
rhythmic/melodic components to create long tracks which can
then be exported as wave/aiff or MIDI files. Also those who
are more familiar with the western notation will be able to
switch to a standard Piano Roll view.
