About Javari : Tanpura & Metronome
The tanpura that never needs tuning. Javari is a complete riyaz companion for Indian classical musicians — and a professional tuner and metronome for every musician. Whether you sing Hindustani or Carnatic, play sitar, sarod, violin or harmonium, or just need a fast, accurate guitar tuner — Javari puts an accompanist, a tuner, a metronome and a practice diary in one calm, beautiful app. YOUR SA, ALIVE — TANPURA & DRONE • Rich, gapless tanpura in all 12 keys — it breathes like the real instrument, with no loop clicks • Subtly detuned drone for a fuller, brighter sound, with a pace control from calm to bright • Tunings to match your instrument or your guru's pitch • Shruti-box drone for vocal riyaz and long-tone practice • Sleep timer for late-night practice — the drone fades out, you drift off A TUNER YOU CAN TRUST • Instant response — the needle moves the moment you play, refreshed 20× per second • Cent-precise: see exactly how many cents sharp or flat, and hold the reading after the note fades • Guitar, bass, ukulele, violin, banjo and mandolin with string-by-string pegs — the detected string lights up, locks green with a chime when in tune, and every peg plays a reference tone • Chromatic mode for any instrument; Voice mode tuned for singers holding a swar • Adjustable concert pitch (A4 415–466 Hz) for baroque, orchestral or older recordings A METRONOME BUILT FOR REAL PRACTICE • Big tempo dial, tap tempo, 20–300 BPM with classical tempo names • Time signatures from 1/4 to 12/8, with subdivisions (eighths, triplets, sixteenths) • Tap any beat to accent or mute it — build the exact pulse your piece needs • Three click sounds, rock-steady timing, and it keeps playing in the background • Mixer: run tanpura and shruti together, balance every layer, strum a swar-mandal shimmer, and save complete setups as one-tap presets PRACTICE LIKE YOUR GURU IS LISTENING • Practice log: daily streaks, minutes per key, and weekly insights — watch your riyaz grow • Recorder: capture yourself over the accompaniment with a live level meter, then play back, share, and keep your best takes • Notes for lessons, bandish, lyrics and notation — attach photos of your guru's corrections • Daily practice reminders that respect your schedule • Lock-screen controls: play, pause, and see your key and tempo without unlocking your phone YOUR MUSIC STAYS YOURS No sign-up required. Your recordings, notes and practice history live on your device — not our servers. Javari (jee-vaa-ree) is named for the jivari, the bridge that gives the tanpura its living buzz — the detail that turns a string into a drone. That is the standard we hold every sound in this app to.
