This brings the practice session to life, mimicking the tempo increases in live classical music that build to the climax of a piece. The best part of this section is the option to increase tempo every n cycles by a chosen percentage. At the bottom of the panes is the part definition section which holds global elements like scale, duration of the whole piece and initial tempo. All the instruments have a volume control and stop/start buttons. Each pane has controls specific to its purpose: the Rhythmic pane lets you select cycle type, the Melodic part lets you select instrument and composition and the Tanpura part lets you select string order and style. You're presented with three different panes, one for the Rhythmic element, one for Melodic and one for Tanpura (the drone element). The Practice section of Swarshala sets up a virtual Indian group for you.
