repeatedly in small steps. The tempo can be set between 30 and 600 matras per minute
through these ranges. (30 to 150 in Range 3, 60 to 300 in Range 2 and 120 to 600 in
Range 1). When the instrument is initially switched ON, the tempo will be set to the
value last stored by the user in memory. (Refer section 5).
4. TONE SELECTION :
The new Sunadamala can produce the leheras in four harmonium tones. To change the
selection, press the TONE key while the lehera is playing. The display temporarily
displays t-1 or t-2 etc as the case may be, confirming the change.
5. STORING IN MEMORY :
While any lehera is playing, pressing the number 4 key will store the present pitch,
tempo and tone in memory. The display shows "st". When the instrument is switched ON
the next time, the stored pitch, tempo and tone will be automatically set.
6 PROGRAMMING :
The "Sunadamala" can be programmed to play any lehera of one's choice. The
instrument can store in its memory two leheras of maximum length of 60 matras each.
Once programmed, these are retained even when the instrument is switched OFF. In
addition, the notes can be embellished with gamak by pressing the ALT key and STOP
key in sequence after the note in the programming sequence.
6.1 PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE :
6.1 Switch 'ON' the instrument as shown in paras 2.1 to 2.3.
6.2 Press PGM key to enter the programming mode. The display now indicates `P.-0'.
This corresponds to the first of two leheras that can be programmed and stored in
memory as tune number 20.0.
6.3 Press any sequence of notes indicated in the yellow areas of the keyboard.
6.4 If any komal or teevra note (flat or sharp) is required, press ALT key and then the
key of the note required. (eg.komal gandhar is obtained by pressing ALT key followed by
GA key. Pressing the GA key without the ALT key would produce the Shuddh GA).
6.5 If any key is to be embellished with gamak, press the ALT and STOP keys in
succession after pressing the required note key. This would split the note into two notes
automatically. (eg. MA-GA).
6.6 Press the START key to end the sequence of notes and exit from the programming
mode. The display shows "st" to confirm that the programme has been stored.
6.7 To programme another lehera without erasing the previously programmed one,
press PGM again so that the display shows P.-1. Repeat the procedure from 6.3 to 6.6.
This sequence will store the new lehera as tune number 20.1. Both the tunes 20.0 and
