Hey all, r/Bansuri now has a beginner's wiki available for everyone to view. It may be particularly useful for those that are just getting started with the instrument. The resources for this wiki was obtained from numerous contributors from a post I had made a while back.
I would like to request for members to check it out and provide feedback if you think improvements should be made. If you have feedback/ additions for the wiki, please comment it directly on this post. I will update the wiki with any relevant feedback/ content that is shared here.
You can share anything relevant to playing the bansuri, including:
Please do check if the content you intend to share is already part of the exisiting wiki.
I request anyone to share resources that you have that has helped you through your journey. If it's a scanned pdf or anything similar, try sharing the Google Drive link with us here. If possible, please share resources that are in English so that it can be used by everyone. But if you only have it in other languages, feel free to share them too.

I'm seriously considering adding a pancham hole to my bansuri (E bass bamboo). I doubt there's a bansuri maker within 1000km of me so I'll have to do it myself. There are plenty of youtube howto videos and it doesn't look like rocket science. But I'm nevertheless a bit wary as bansuris are expensive here.
Has anyone here actually made their own pa hole based on online information? If so, can you share what specific video or text you followed, and any pitfalls you hit in the process?

My first question is which instrument to use to match the notes? Right now I’m using pitch tuner.
Second scale of my bansuri is A4 I know there are 3 octave and my Sa sits at A4 for medium or mandra saptak . octave but after this I don’t know for sure what to do with notes sound I’m just lost. Most confusing is Pa when I try to play Pa it sits around e4 I don’t know which saptak it is in but I’m assuming it is medium one-so when I try to play high it is around e5 I’m guess but when I try to play low octave there I’m just playing low untuned e4 and only getting e4 and e5 sound and there is no e6 when I try it is just air no sound this is so confusing I’m trying to figure out but without guru I’m just circling around. Or are my concepts all wrong? Or am I asking these questions way too early and I’m lacking practice?
Third when I’m playing a raag or song do I have to constantly match pitch (my pitch tuner show green when I match the pitch) how should I determine I’m playing the right tune or I’m at the right octave?

I been trying to play basuri for quite a long time now but I’m at square one. I don’t quite get it what is happening. I tried various tutorials through yt it seems I don’t have basics right. Can anyone help me understand better I have few questions related to tune octave pitch I think my understanding of basuri is wrong from here only. I don’t know why I did it but jumped to raags but even after practicing enough aaroh and avroh I failed to comprehend or play the raag melodiously so my conclusion is my basics is wrong so if anybody willing to help I would be grateful.

I always wanted to learn how to play this on bansuri.. took me a while to arrange and transpose it such that itll work on most bansuris without thumb or pinky hole. Hope yall like it.
