In the sources from the 15th century however, it is seen that this term describes a musical group. The term \"çalıcı\" (player) in the phrase çalıcı mehter, emerged especially during Mehmed II's reign, fell off use in time and mehter settled in the colloquial use as a term that refers to the band by itself.",
