A Collection of Sansula Tunings
Plus a Couple of Sansula News Bits
We have gathered here a collection of videos demonstrating various Sansula tunings. Unfortunately, we were not able to include videos of one of the most important contributors to Sansula tunings, Rick Tarquinio, who has closed his YouTube channel. He has opened his Sounding Place blog, where one may find many other intriguing recordings - but, alas, no Sansula.
There is now a SANSULA APP for the iPhone and iPad. The Sansula APP is a virtual Sansula on iPhone or iPad. You can play on it on the touch screen like on a real Sansula. The sound is very natural. You can tune every tine 3 steps down and 8 steps up, so you can create every thinkable Sansula tuning. You can save your own tuning creations. There are six preset tunings on it for the beginning, they will be updated after some time. Surely it is not a substitute for a real Sansula, but I think itīs a very useful tool for people who work with different tunings on the Sansula. There is the free version available with just the standard tuning without any further functions, and the pay version - tunable, price 4.99 USD. You can find it in the Apple APP store, search word : Sansula
