Fluid tuning: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

Generalized, "fluid tuning" could mean any instrument which offers a "temporarily fixed" tuning. That is, at any one moment, the instrument offers a finite set of fixed pitches, yet it also allows the ''continuous'' change of what those pitches are. Each pitch-producing mechanism in the instrument (each "voice") then has a defined frequency range. A fluid tuning could then be defined by a set of interval ranges instead of a set of single pitches.

Defined in that way, instruments with fluid tuning also include the [~~http~~://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcuAk5UY5g8 pitch bending thumb piano], the moveable-frets guitar, and perhaps even the [http://www.oneringzero.com/?page_id=57 claviola], as well as a number of interfaces made possible with computers.
