10 Positive User Reviews for Real Tanpura
Was looking for a drone app.
The fault is on me, but I was looking for a simple drone app that just sustains one note. I should have done a little more research before I purchased. If you update with a function to sustain one note, I'll rate five stars!
Good samples
I could tell this app was good when it took longer to download than others. That means it has longer samples.
Great one for musicians
It has wonderful Nadham-(sound ) than the other couple ones that I have Tried.So easy and comfortable to use and I love it.Also recommended it for so many music lovers and learners .Thanks for the upgraded versions .Hathi software rocks 👍😀
Finding the sound quality to have deteriorated in v2.0
Have been a happy user for many years. But the sound quality seems to have taken a hit in the latest version. Sounds very tinny and electronic. No longer has the wide soundstage.
Not exactly what I was looking for
I am sure many will enjoy this app but I am looking for more flexibility.
Crazy Quality Recordings
The recordings are of an actual tanpura, a difference you can tell when you use it.
A must-have App for all Carnatic musicians
Our family has been a regular user of this app since its first release. We have it installed on our phones and tablets, and use it for routine home practice sessions or on the go during long drives, etc. Its ease of use is remarkable, and has a great sound quality. My wife, Aparna Sunder, is a Carnatic music guru in Chicago. She has recommended this App to many of her students as she is extremely satisfied with it. It is very reasonably priced, and is definitely a worthy app to have.
Decent, but needs some work
Great overall sound, more interesting than iTabla, as upper harmonics are actually present.
My top concern is that there is a noticeable cut-off sound, presumably at the point where the audio loops. Unfortunately this makes it too distracting for practice, let alone to use in performance.
I hope this is fixed in the future, because the sound quality is encouraging. Also would be nice to have a slider for speed, rather than three settings.
I will certainly keep this app and look forward to

There's a problem
After listening for a while I noticed the overtones are not tuned correctly. This can be fixed. Needs to be recorded again with someone who knows how to fine tune and listen for the overtones. I too can not use this app as it is.
440 tuned
I wish it had the ability to master tune it so it is not fixed on 440 I would live to aet this to 444 and 432
