A Virtual Shruti Box

Dear Lydians,

While worshipping online, I’ve been missing the shruti box. So I made a virtual version you can download and play as we sing our blessings for the bread and, later in the service, for the wine.

The shruti box silver setting will work for the summer of 2020. I may upload new settings as needed. Here are the steps:

  1. Download this mp3 of the shruti drone in silver setting and import it into your mp3 library.

  2. When we begin the blessings for the bread or the wine, you can press play on your mp3 version and hear the shruti. As long as you’re on mute or wearing headphones, the shruti sound won’t interfere with Zoom, though you may want to set the volume output of your mp3 player accordingly.

Enjoy!
