Sa Finder
A one-screen utility for picking and saving a Sa (your home note). Pick a shruthi, hear a tanpura drone, and save the one your voice settles in. Use this Sa across the other Labs tools.
How to use Sa Finder
- Step through the shruthi options and hear each tanpura drone.
- Hum or sing along to find the one that feels effortless.
- Save your Sa — the other Labs music tools will read it from local storage.
Frequently asked questions
- What is "your Sa"?
- Sa is your home note — the tonic your voice (or instrument) settles into without strain. Every other note in Carnatic music is relative to this one.
- How do I pick the right Sa?
- Cycle through the drones and hum along. The right Sa is the one you can sustain for a long breath without pushing the voice up or down.
- Where is my Sa saved?
- Locally in your browser via localStorage. The other Labs music tools read this value so you don’t have to set it again.
