Reviews: What People Think About TaalMala
Ratin Rahman
Rating: 4/5
I purchased this a 2/3 years ago, but It never worked for me properly. If I select a tabla, it plays but when I go and select another one, it doesn’t play the new one, still the old one. The other caveat I found was it was playing some kinda default mode where it plays in the predefined automatic stop mode or something and you have to find it and change it to be on-demand mode. This caused embarrassment in a live setting for me. The default for purchased app should not be that.

I am in the field of IT and software development so my review is principally from that viewpoint. At the same time, I descend from a very impressive line of classically trained famous musicians. So I do have very good idea of where this product fits and its potential.
This software fills a space that is much needed to promote and make shastriya sangeet (Hindustani and Carnatic) accessible to musical lovers, budding musicians, teachers and amateur/professional alike. The idea is fantastic!
However, the software is horribly buggy. I have installed on iPads (old to the latest - yes, I do have several); iPhones and they all exhibit very annoying problems like hanging, not releasing control to iOS when the home button is pressed, buttons on the display just freezing (unresponsive), UI being extremely cluttered (too dense).
I would have released it as beta and not even think about charging money till the bugs are ironed out.
Let me reiterate, conceptually this a great product. Work on the interface, remove the bugs and I will be one of your customers.
Good luck!
