Upcoming fixes

There seems to be a lot of traffic coming these days, and pop india radio seems to be getting kind of slow. It's possible that the traffic is the culprit, in any case, I'll be adding some more tools to better the experience (loading bar, status text etc.)

Also, for the Virtual Tabla, I'm thinking of adding a few new sounds. Namely "DheRe" and the "slide" effect for the bayan (bass). If you've ever heard the tabla played before, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about!

For those of you who've never heard all the amazing sounds you can play with the bayan (the bass drum), let the Tabla master show you below! (I know I know, the guy on the flute is a bit funny)

Pop India Radio is up

It took a while to make, but Pop India Radio is up. You can listen to a variety of popular Indian music (hindi, punjabi, tamil) . More updates to come.

tabla updates

Created a 'virtual tabla directions' page to help those not familiar with tabla. It gives some basic idea of how to play more complicated sounds like "dha" and "tirikite" etc.

Also modified the look of the tabla webpage a bit to make it more navigable.

These days im working on making some of the other elements talastudio.. 'pop india radio' :)

हिंदी बोलने वालों, मे सोच रहा हूँ कि वेबसाइट हिंदी मे ट्रांज़्लेट करूं।लेकिन मेरी सपेललिंग बहूत खराब है ... देखेंगे !

Big changes

So I decided to go ahead and buy a domain name: www.talastudio.com, the virtual tabla is now on that website.

I wanted to add more features to the tabla, and make a website on my interest in Indian music in general. The new 'talastudio' (tala means 'beat' in hindi) website will be a place for expansion. Hopefully, it will host some other virtual instruments. I have a dholak so I'll try to make a virtual version of that too, that would be too cool! Basically a bunch of ideas are stirring me up, so I want a new website where I can try some new stuff out. It's gonna be slick, trust me!

New tunes

Added a new taal to the tune section.. "kherwa"..

Loading Bar..

Just put a loading bar for the virtual tabla. Hopefully now you might have some idea how long it will take to load! The v-tabla is currently about 146Kb, so at least modem users will know how long they need to wait.
