An online tanpura in F♯

F♯ — kali teen — is a female Sa with shade in it. Voices that find G♯ glassy and G merely fine often land here and stay: there is warmth in the key, and khyal sung at F♯ keeps its lower octave rich instead of vanishing under the tanpura.

That lower octave is where jawari matters most, and Sangat's plucks are a real instrument's, with the buzz intact. Two voices — deeper, brighter — and three plucking styles decide the rest of the character.

Choose among 18 tunings, each with a note on where it is used, and let it run. Free, no account, and it keeps playing while you fetch the tea.
