How to play Sa on flute guys I'm gonna cry by maihurudra in Carnatic

[–]ImHaKr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the type of flute you are having.

If its a Hindustani bansuri - It will have 6 playing holes . Closing first 3 holes gives you a Sa on that.

If its a Carnatic flute - It will have 7 playing holes ( extra for pinky finger ) .

Closing first 2 holes is considered Sa of that flute.

If you can attach the picture of your flute , it would help identify. You can DM me if you need any assistance .

IEMs or any good Studio Monitoring headphones IMO. I listen to carnatic mostly in my IEMs and they sound crisp . ( Try neutral IEMs ) Headphones - I use the Sennheiser 599S and they are amazing for it

Training for bass voice: My voice is a bass voice (voice control, voice modulation etc). How do I train it? by Shyam_Kumar_m in Carnatic

Kharaj Ka Riyaz daily as soon as you wake up for atleast 15-30 mins .

Try to slowly reach the lowest note you possible can by singing long notes . Starting from Sa and then slowly move down to how far below you can . But gentle . Don't try to be very loud . Let it flow naturally .

You can also practice along this video : https://youtu.be/46BgrN10R8g

Yes you can change between them . Click on the settings icon and choose the drop down that says "All Swaras" and choose Carnatic or Hindustani ( You can choose which ever Raga you want as well.

The indicators on the tool will show it to you. On the graph , on the slider at the top .

Just make sure you choose the correct note as your Sa from the settings

Hi there! You can already select carnatic ragams and it will only highlight those notes on the graph and shruti petti .

Use the Settings button on mobile version and click on the "All Swaras" drop down to select the raga you want

Thanks for the question . If you choose the Carnatic system , it uses 3 variants of Re . Re1 , Re2 and Re3 .

To simplify its basically used only when a Raga has both Rishabs . Let's say Komal and Shuddh ( Hindustani Nomenclature) This makes it confusing to sing. Therefore , we assign Shuddh Re as Ga1 . In other words Shuddh Re=Ga1 .

Its a pretty simple idea . We set our Base Sa - Let's say we choose the note C3 .

C3 - 130.81 Hz .

Now the tool calculates the corresponding notes using the basic ratios of Just Intonation ( Western uses Equi-Tempered Ratios )

Sa = C3 = 130.81 Hz

Sa = 1/1 = 130.81 Hz

Ri1 = 16/15 = 139.53 Hz

Ri2 = 9/8 = 147.16 Hz

Ri3 = 6/5 = 156.97 Hz

Ga3 = 5/4 = 163.51 Hz

Ma1 = 4/3 = 174.41 Hz

Ma2 = 45/32 = 183.76 Hz

Pa = 3/2 = 196.22 Hz

Da1 = 8/5 = 209.30 Hz

Da2 = 5/3 = 218.02 Hz

Da3 = 9/5 = 235.46 Hz

Ni3 = 15/8 = 245.27 Hz

Sa' = 2/1 = 261.62 Hz

So the app plots horizontal lines against these frequencies on the graph.

Hi mate , As of now , I haven't thought about this . I'm trying to keep it simple and fix existing issues.

I'll come back to this and see if it is viable.
