I’m Kaustubh, the creator of Tabla I/O.
For generations, compositions in Indian classical percussion—Kaydas, Relas, Paltas, and Tihais—have lived in spiral notebooks with fading ink and handwritten symbols that can be difficult to decipher or share.
Western music has Sibelius and MuseScore, but Hindustani percussion, despite its intricate mathematical richness, never had a dedicated, modern digital notation environment that respects Bhatkhande paddhati.
I built Tabla I/O to bridge traditional oral heritage with modern web engineering:
1. Zero guesswork: The editor understands matras, vibhags, and bol syllables natively.
2. Computational rhythm: Built-in Layakari (Aad, Kuaad, Biad) and Tihai calculators.
3. Fast & accessible: Built with pure Vanilla JS—no bloat, instant load, print-ready PDF export.
Tabla I/O is free to explore, and I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback! 🙏
