Record riyaz with the tanpura. A live sur graph shows your voice against the swara lines and how many cents to move up or down.
Tune your bansuri, harmonium or voice; see all 12 swaras of your Sa with their notes and frequencies.
3-octave swar keyboard (grand piano, harmonium, synth) with octave switch, sustain, and computer-key playing.
The screen goes dark and shows only the current matra – easy on the eyes and the battery during long riyaz.
Save your compositions as a .swar file, keep it in Google Drive, and import it on another phone or PC – or share with your students.
Both versions share the same sounds and your .swar files work on both.
