It is also possible to practice these alankaars with grace notes. A grace note is when you play a note for a  very short time compared with other notes - it is a flicker of that note. You literally tap the hole of the note - on and off very quickly. For example, you could play : S R G (R) G - The (R) is the grace note. So when you play this sequence of notes you will play Sa Re Ga then you will tap your finger on and off the grace note, in this case the Re hole very quickly then playing Ga normally. Try to play the grace notes in the following practice exercises:


SRG (R) G       RGM (G) M       GMP (M) P..................

SG (R) G R       RM (G) M G       GP (M) P M.................

BASIC LESSONS FOR THE BANSURI
Aim of this to give you some useful tips in order to help you get used to your flute.
following are the name of the notes.......



LEARN INDIAN NOTATION
 You should begin to familiarise yourself with the Indian notes.(which differ from the western notes Do Re Mi...) and learn them so that you know exactly which notes you are playing. This will also help you to do some of the practice exercises on this page. The Indian notation system is called "saregam".
The notes are called the following (Full name in brackets) as we cover holes one by one beginning from the top of the flute and working our way down until all holes are covered.


Ma (Madhyam) - no holes covered
Ga (Gandhar) - 1st hole covered
Re (rishab) - 2 holes covered
Sa (Shadja) - 3 holes covered
Ni (Nishad) - 4 holes covered
Dha (Dhaivat) - 5 holes covered
Pa (Pancham) - 6 holes covered


The Notation System

We need one system for the lower octave, one for the middle octave and another for the upper octave.

For the lower octave, we write;

,S ,R ,G ,m ,P ,D ,N  

However, bansuri cannot play the first 4 of these notes, and so you will not see them notated in bansuri music. The first complete scale on the bansuri starts in the 'mid octave' at S.
The full basic scale is;

S R G m P D N

Even though this scale is notated without lower or upper octave marks, on bansuri, the first 4 notes are made by blowing the lower octave, but to reach the next 3 notes you will have to alter your embouchure to find the next octave for those finger positions. This seems counter intuitive at first, but makes sense if you keep in mind that the scale begins with 3 holes closed.

'S 'R 'G 'm 'P 'D 'N  are used for the octave above.

Half notes (called 'Komal Swara')  are frequently played, and are notated using small letters (lower case alphabet), as in 'ma' in the basic scale.

,d  (Five and half holes closed, lower octave)
,n  (Four and a half holes closed, lower octave)
 (Two and a half holes closed, lower octave)
g  (One and a half holes closed, lower octave)
m  (Half a hole closed, lower octave) * Although this note is a half note, it is not considered 'Komal Swara, as it is included in the natural scale.
(All holes are open, lower octave) * The natural scale is played with the note 'm' as a half closed note. But sometimes scales will call for this note to played totally open. This is notated as 'M'. So during the practice sessions, if you see 'm' you will know this is maplayed with the first hole half closed, and 'M' is played with the first hole totally open.

Exercise 1
Arohan (Ascending):      'P 'D 'N S R G M P D N S' R' G' M' P'

Avarohan (Descending):    P' M' G' R' S' N D P M G R S 'N 'D 'P

'P----mean Pa in lower octave
and all as I show above.

Exercise 2
Arohan:         'P 'D 'N S     'D 'N S R     'N S R G     S R G M     R G M P     G M P D
                      
                       M P D N      P D N S'     D N S' R'     N S' R' G'     S' R' G' M'     R' G' M' P'

Avarohan:      P' M' G' R'     M' G' R' S'     G' R' S' N     R' S' N D     S' N D P     N D P M

                       D P M G     P M G R     M G R S     G R S 'N     R S 'N 'D     S 'N 'D 'P

Bluetooth HC-05

Hi
This article is about giving you an insight on how to interface your HC-05 to your Android powered handset using a bluetooth modem. generally this come without pin & it is very diffficult to connect them as show..
Basic diffierent between them is.....
  • The HC-05 module can build a connection to other modules. E.g. a Robot being a master and connecting to slave bluetooth module. Or in slave mode to make a wireless bridge to a notebook.
  • The HC-06 module only can be a slave. This makes it only useful for say connecting a notebook as a master to a robot with a slave module e.g. for a wireless serial bridge.
To solve this we generally use JY-MCU as show ....to connect HC-05



  • KEY: according to the data sheet, I need to pull-up this pin while power-on-reset of the module to enforce AT mode. I have not been able to verify this yet. I have been told that some modules have this pin not connected at all?
  • VCC is indicated in the range of 3.6V-6V. The module worked for me both with 3.3V and 5V.
  • GND: Ground
  • TXD: serial output of the module, to be connected to RX of the microcontroller. Note that this signal is using 3.3V logic level
  • RXD: serial input of the module, to be connected to the TX of the microcontroller. Note that this signal is using 3.3V logic levels.
  • STATE: connected to LED2 (Pin32) of the module, but no meaning? At least on my module the pin was always low, regardless if paired or not.
Simple View All connection is......



Now you are ready to evaluate bluetooth........
Happy Bluethoothing............

How to connect Bluetooth module to Android

Hi
This article is about  how to interface your hardware to your Android handset using a bluetooth model. When i say hardware, i mean a board powered by a microcontroller. You can interface the handset either using an
  • USB port
  • Bluetooth
  • Wi-Fi
  • GPRS

Here we will only discuss how to interface using a bluetooth connection. For this, you will need any simple microcontroller with UART interface and a Linvor Bluetooth module. The Linvor bluetooth module operates on 5V power supply and can be connected to the microcontroller using an UART interface.
Device control Application:
On the application side, I modified the Bluetooth chat application example from Android SDK. The application was developed for Gingerbread 2.3. HC 05 bluetooth module works using the SPP protocol. The application takes care of initializing the handset's bluetooth for SPP protocol and also provides options to search for bluetooth devices and sync with them. You can control 3 devices ON-OFF and fan speed from 0 to 99. I used a stepper motor to control the fans regulator/potentiometer and  relays for devices and a stepper motor.
  • Connect the 
  • VCC ->+5V, 
  •   GND->GND,   
  •  TXD->MCU RXD,  
  •   RXD-> MCU TXD
  • As soon as you power up the module, the red LED on the module starts blinking indicating that the module is ready for connection.
  • Next, search for bluetooth devices in range using the application.
  • The Linvor module will appear as linvor  in the found devices list.
  • Select and sync the handset with the linvor device.
  • Once the handset and the module are connected, the red LED on the module stops blinking and stays ON until the bluetooth connection is terminated.
