Anyone have any suggestions for hardware or Mac OS > solutions? Travis: hardware: I have a Raagini electronic sampled tanpura box that I love. Advantages: output jack so I can plug it into the mixer and blend it nicely flexible on the drone chords optional & included battery pack built-in speaker with the battery and speaker, I can busk with it if I like. Here's where to find one: http://www.buckinghammusic.com/elect/elect.html I participated in a six-person improvisational live looping performance back in June under the name Audio Arcade. The recording of our set is here: http://www.subscapeannex.com/arcade/sounds.html I used my Raagini electronic tanpura, which you should be able to hear in spots, throughout, althought faded in and out. A local sitar player has the Raagini electronic tabla box that he uses for accompaniment, and it sounded perfectly acceptable for live performance. Mac OS X software: As I mentioned the last time this topic came up, I was happy to note recently that Swarshala has recently been released for OS X. http://www.swarsystems.com/SwarShala/ best, Steve B http://www.subscapeannex.com/about_steve.html
