Cameron-- The trouble here is that inaccuracies in both performance and perception make it truly unreasonable to insist on any measurement as a singular ideal....

Don't like the patent and the dismissal of JI. Other than that, got no beef with the dude. Just sayin'. Basically agree with yer thrust, tho. Here's a...

Michael, ... Don't think I know enough about the context to answer that! But can say a bit more about the value of eccentrics. When I do maths research - often...
This might be a neat, cheap tool to use for MIDI guitar retuning. The new Rock Band 3 will be coming out with 2 controllers - one is this button faux-guitar...

Hey all, I want to buy a microtonal keyboard, so I naturally started looking at the AXiS-49. But now I'm wondering if there are any other options. I just...
Michael The Phi scales do exactly as you mention here stay within a certain level of con/dis. One can notice this feature in pre-12ET African music which lead...

I agree with Michael here. There really is no way to prove it anyways. If you do a good scale that people can hear, people will use it and if they don't it...
