I'm a new tabla player and new to this fourm
I have a few questions about tuning the bayan.
My bayan has a great resonant sound but the tone is a bit higher in scale
than all the recordings of tabla players I listen to ie: Aloke Dutta, Zakir Hussain etc. Is there a way to tune the bayan? One more question. . I heard a tabla player
play the scales on the bayan how on earth do you do that?
Thanks for your time

Warren:Don't worry about it it will come down as you play it , besides tuning a baya down involves loosening the strap , something you dont want to do .

Warren: This is call Gamak you must press(not slide) the bottom of your palm near the wrist
Thanks for your time
Thanks for your replys
I'm really enjoying learning the tabla and I know it's going to take time
to learn and I'm more than willing to dedicate all my free time to understanding this wonderfull instrument.
Thanks again.
