1. 5/5I bought an iPad in order to run this app

   Couple of years later I was grateful to find out I automatically could get the iPhone version. It's still by far my favorite app. I wish developers would do similar things for other styles if music. I'm not a Indian classical player, but I mess around with Kirtan. (Suggestion: set up your favorites so your 6, 8 and 16 beat tals are all easily available without having to scroll through all the other options. Yeah, someday I hope to play in 13 and a half, but until then...) I love the interface but what really makes it are the quality of the sounds. In fact I wish the tabla was available for playback through a sampler. I asked and got an immediate and polite no for an answer. Hmmmmmm, perhaps I should take off one star...

2. 5/5The Best App for Indian Music and Much More

   I have been using iTabla for quite a number of years now and use it almost daily. For many years I was a student of North Indian classical music, and for many years since, I have been a jazz musician, retaining many of the ideas and concepts of Indian music. So in addition to practicing ragas and talas, I also use it for less traditional purposes, such as non-traditional tanpura tunings, and for general practice in odd meters. Also, every musician can benefit from practicing regularly with a drone, as it can greatly improve your subtle sense of pitch. The app is also extremely well designed, and I would recommend it not just for students of Indian music (for whom it is really essential), but for any musician who wants to practice modal music with configurable drone accompaniment, or wants to practice in a wide variety of metric patterns. It also can provide a very useful background for all sorts of vocal exercises. Unless you have a couple of decent Indian musicians who can accompany you whenever you want, you should have this app, and probably even then.

3. 5/5Very well designed, easy to use

   This software was well designed. It is very easy to learn how to use all of the features just by opening all of the menus and reading the choices. The sound quality is excellent. I love how you can make the tabla play more fills for the vilambit tempo and choose between several variations of how it plays theka at any tempo. You can even fine tune the tampura settings in great detail. The designer thought of everything. I love how You can still see how much battery power is left on your phone while using. This app is any serious Hindusthani or Carnatic music student or performer’s best friend.

4. 5/5Excellent, some feature requests

   I just want to thank the developer for creating such a gem of an app for the followers of eastern classical genre. I have been a long user of this app and very satisfied with the sound and variations. Recently in iOS/ iPad OS music making community people who want to buy this app are really concerned about whether there will be features like Ableton link/ Host Tempo Sync in another Daw and mainly Auv3 support for the app in the future. I know it is not necessary for practice and performance, but if Auv3 is supported, we can use it for music making purpose as well. This is my curiosity and a desperate feature request as well. I hope we get the clear picture from the developer.

5. 5/5Incredible app

   ITablaPro is an incredible app for any musician and especially those playing Indian classical and spiritual music. I am a sitar player and have been using it for many years. The developers have included every possible drum and tone option conceivable for Indian music and it can be tuned to your instrument or tone range. You can play along with tabla and tambura tracks or have it in the background. All and all an incredible and valuable app worth much more than the cost.
