Re: OT: Indian rhythm box recommendations?

["Kris Hartung" <khartung@cableone.net>]

Most of the electronic tanpura boxes I've heard sound horrendous to me. I
had better results by using my Boss Dr. Sample and looping a series of high
quality tanpura drone sample at different keys. I looped tabla samples as
well, using the thousands of samples I have on my computer.

This page has a bunch of devices as well, for tablas, tanpura, etc.

...maybe some of the newer versions sound better. ??
