Type Tabla 2.0

Type Tabla presents a unique solution for musicians and enthusiasts of Indian classical music. As the first keyboard specifically designed for typing Tabla compositions in both English and Devanagari script, it simplifies the process of transcribing and sharing musical ideas.

This innovative keyboard includes dedicated keys for all fundamental Tabla syllables, enabling users to compose intricate pieces with remarkable ease. The single-button functionality enhances usability, allowing for efficient text entry without the cumbersome process typically associated with traditional methods.

2. Choose to activate either "Type Tabla" or "Type Tabla Devnagri."
3. Open your preferred text editor (such as Notes, Google Docs, or Microsoft Word).
4. Tap the globe icon on the bottom left of your keyboard to switch between keyboards. Continue tapping until the Type Tabla keyboard is active. To return to your standard keyboard, select the "Change" button on the Type Tabla interface.
