Shruti Laya vs Shruthi Box

Shruti-Laya is a Carnatic music practice companion. Three independent, perfectly phase-locked voices — tanpura, mrudangam, and manjira — play together against the tala grid you choose, for steady, musical accompaniment any time. TANPURA DRONE • Choose your tonic (Sa) across a wide range and the supporting string — pancham (Pa), madhyama (Ma), nishada (Ni), or upper Sa. • Adjust pluck rate and volume. MRUDANGAM • Tala-driven stroke playback with adjustable tempo (40–150 BPM). • Optional pattern variations for a more lifelike accompaniment. MANJIRA • Cymbal strokes on every beat, on claps, on sam, or off. PICK YOUR TALA • All seven Suladi Sapta Talas — Dhruva, Matya, Rupaka, Jhampa, Triputa, Ata, Eka. • Set jaati and gati/nadai — Tisra, Chatusra, Khanda, Misra, Sankeerna — plus a kalai multiplier. (Adi tala = Triputa with Chatusra jaati.) BUILT-IN TUNER (new) • Tune your voice or instrument to your selected tonic. • Live swara name and a sharp/flat cents bar, right in the display. Practice-friendly: pause and resume from the lock screen and Control Center, and the drone keeps playing when the screen sleeps. Works on iPhone and iPad. NOTE: The Tuner feature uses the microphone to detect the pitch of the user's voice or instrument and show how it compares to the selected tonic. Tap "Tuner" above the on-screen display to try it; the app requests microphone permission on first use. No audio is recorded, stored, or transmitted.

Shruthi Box is a digital shruti box for Indian classical music practice, featuring just intonation intervals.
