Description of iShala

iShala is an Indian music mobile app that provides flawless accompaniment for classical music practice, be it vocal, instrumental or rhythmic. It features: • tanpura (x6) • tabla • swarmandal • harmonium • manjeera (x3) all fully customisable in practice sessions that can then be loaded on demand. It effectively replaces a tabla machine, a lehra player and an electronic tanpura. It is therefore an ideal tool for anyone practicing Indian classical music, or just wishing to jam along virtual Indian musicians on any other musical style. iShala includes over 60 rhythmic cycles, melodies in more than 110 ragas and 7 different tempos. You can also create your own ragas and fine-tune each of their notes at micro-tones (or shrutis) level. Possible combinations are thus nothing short of endless! Along with accompaniment, iShala now also corrects your pitch*! Sing/play freely or over a harmonium melody and iShala will highlight any discrepancy from the correct note. This is an incredible tool to improve your pitch accuracy. iShala has a pay once, use forever policy. A Premium* In-App purchase option gives you additional functionality under the same terms. * Included with PREMIUM option (In-App Purchase): • 4 additional tanpuras • a low pitch tabla • 3 additional manjeeras • pitch detection to make sure you sing/play on the right note • autotune session by pitch recognition Some sweet words from our users: "Best tanpura app. Concert like.
