How to read this
Kampita is the slow, sinusoidal pitch oscillation Carnatic singers and instrumentalists use as ornamentation. Two characteristics define it: the rate (how fast you oscillate, typically 4-6 Hz) and the depth (how wide the swing, typically 10-20¢). Vocalists hold a steady mean pitch but vibrate around it — that's what we measure.
