Pre-amp
built-in, boosts only percussion notes
Mridu Tharang is a specially designed and tuned percussion drum weighing less than half of the traditional Mridangam.
It comprises an electric sound pickup set to reject ambient noise, while the built-in pre-amp offers appropriate gain to boost only the spectrum of percussion notes, offering the best audible experience to the audience.
Early performances mesmerised audiences across India, at the Soorya Festival, the International Trade Fair in New Delhi and in the Gulf countries, and were well received by supporting artists and sound programming experts.
