Shruti Box for Positive User Reviews

✓ Easy to use portable Shruti Box!I'm using this app with my iPod Touch 4g and a small battery powered bluetooth speaker. The sound is excellent! It compares quite favorably with a real wood shruti box. We use this app in our Celtic music duo with harp, hammered dulcimer, flute, bouzouki, fiddle, and concertina. You can easily configure a very pleasing drone sound with a tonic and the 5th above - - - or even add a third, if you wish. There a 5 different voices: shruti box, vocal choir, harmonium, button accordion, and organ. The sounds are rich and slightly wavering, just like a real shruti box, so you don't get a robotic sine wave generator sound. There is an option to have the sounds be an octave lower. You can switch between a tempered scale and a harmonic scale. I give this app a 5 star rating..ShazzbotVersion: 1.7.4

✓ Nearing a dream app!Nice application, I like the selection of tones available and the ability to shift the fundamental. All I could ask for would be a few more temperaments/some discrete values for the reeds and this would be near perfect. Thanks.AerlessVersion: 0

✓ ShrutiI own a shruti box and this app is so good I am tempted to use it in conjunction with my PA at events instead of the real thing. Plus it has many additional features not available on the real shruti and they make it so much fun with such a great range of sounds. One of my best buys and only 99c! Thanks for this app.....PingellyPeteVersion: 1.6.2

✓ Good instrument for my music - so nice atmosphereThanks for this instrument, I like the atmosphere it creates. Very well in tune. I'm playing flute and doing some vocals, it's very usefull and I'm having pleasure to play... Please, add more great sounds !.VikkkyVersion: 0

✓ It Actually Works Great!Those who dislike it simply don’t understand it. It works perfectly and has beautiful “voice” selections. The virtual Shruti box can be “pumped” by moving the volume slider up and down with one finger - actually easier than a “real” Shruti box..FW DidjVersion: 4.2

✓ Outstanding!After getting a glimpse of Vidya Multimedia's applications with iTabla, I have been eagerly awaiting their next iTunes product. Shruti box is first rate. Very very good sound and like iTabla, very tweakable. Other than an ability to save presets, I can think of little to improve it..EarthymusicVersion: 0

✓ Finally, a real sounding shrutiI bought the other Shruti when I first got my iPhone. It was basically a tone generator, with no reedy sound. This version is much better, and has many options for tuning and tone. I just bought their Harmonium as well, and am hoping they do a Tanpura, and Tabla to complete my Indian instrument collection..Bramsan1Version: 0

✓ Great sounding Shruti box.Very welcome update, but still needs Audiobus or IAA compatibility. The lack of these options limits its use. Please add!.Ben EfitofadoubtVersion: 4.0

✓ Almost thereI think this app, as well as the developer's harmonium app, have potential but aren't quite there yet. I think this app seems a bit more stable (in a 1s & 0s programming sense) than my experience with the harmonium, but as I said in that review I'm partially rating this higher than the current version may deserve simply because I got the impression that the app's creator is genuinely working on making the app better. One thing I think this app could really use is some type of bellows feature (like the other shruti app has) not only for the sake of authenticity, but also because of the pulsating sounds possible with the bellows. So I suppose this app isn't quite where the competition is yet, but it seems to have a good starting point..Furvel LankmanVersion: 0

✓ Mr NeyzenxThis is a great app! I think the other reviewers don't understand what a Shruti Box is used for. If you are doing Indian Music you will like this app. The Pa and Ma are actually beatless against the Sa, if one selects Harmonic in the settings. The interface is obvious to folks who have used a real acoustic Shruti box..NeyzenxVersion: 3.5

✓ A fine effort!As the writer of the 'other' srutibox, I commend this app as a functional take on authentically useful Carnatic droning, with a straightforward and familiar interface. The timbres could stand a bit of the breath- like growliness of an 'analog' shruti box, but maybe you can add that later. But - Simple is also Good!.Henry LowengardVersion: 0

✓ Absolutely brilliant!Strongly recommended for practice with any wind instrument..Bluefish183Version: 4.0
