Based on a kind of sequencer known as a lehera,
which is used traditionally by tabla players to practice complex Hindustani rhythmic patterns, Mantra Music contains over one hundred rhythm/melody patterns that can be transposed to any key. Instead of traditional Indian musical instruments the app uses a FM synthesizer to play these patterns. Thousands of unique sounds are available.

Mantra Music is easy to use. Randomly select any sequence/sound combination by a roll of the dice or use the top control bar to access any parameter. Adjust the tempo, volume, and reverb. Tap the pads to play any one of five drum sets, or play along with the melody. Optional bass accompaniment accents key beats in the rhythm.

Record and share your compositions via email.

You can even construct progressions (progs) of sequences, varying the notes, rhythm, timbre, and tempo of each sequence. Edit, play, save, or export prog midi files to other apps.
