Hi Jacky, At www.SoundOfIndia.com, click on 'Performances', to
listen to a 27-second tanpura sample. I obtained two loops (for two
tanpura-s), but neither was clean enough. So the output is a little
muddy, wobbly, and hollow. Any shortcomings in the loops have not
only come through, but also got magnified. I hope to get better
loops in the future. And then, the converting software has its own
personality and preferences!
The tanpura is tuned in the key of C.

Haresh.

Haresh,

It actually sounds great! Thanks for providing this - been eagerly
awaiting it.

I wish to thank you kindly for 38:35 of pure bliss from "Mitvaa Maane
Naa". What an wonderful surprise to hear such perfection! I am
humbled by your impeccable mastery, and the fine musicianship of all
the accompanying musicians.

Please convey to them my absolute delight upon hearing this, as I
have been wanting to hear you sing now for quite a while. The rewards
are great, and filled with boundless Uplifting Energy.

This music ranks for me, right up there, as some of the finest music
from our beloved tuning list. I'm just going to listen to this for
the rest of the day!

Kindest thanks and Blessings for sharing your music and drone,

Jacky Ligon
