So just for you, dear readers, we downloaded it [iTunes link] and gave it a shot. The verdict? If you can already play the sitar, you'll probably find it a reasonable approximation. Just like the guitar simulators on the iPhone, there are various strings on screen that you can "strum," and the notes are labeled under the virtual strings. As for actually learning the sitar, however, you're probably out of luck. There's one instructional page, and links to eHow videos, but there's nothing solid in terms of actually learning the device. And unfortunately, the app just feels pretty cheap -- there's a large part of the screen taken up with a one-hit sitar sound, and quite a few times, we'd try striking different strings and get the same notes, Thu, 04 Feb 2010 12:00:00 GMT http://www.tuaw.com/2010/02/04/pocket-sitar-is-a-virtual-sitar-for-the-iphone/ TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://twitter.com/why_iphone_apps/statuses/9133456586 ...@MachCUBED: The sitar is properly romantic for Valentine's Day.
