| == Using AFDOs to make EDO interval tables ==
| |
|
| |
| To make a quick and dirty table of intervals in an edo, you can go to [[Scale Workshop]] and do the following:
| |
| # Create a new Excel spreadsheet
| |
| # Make cell A1 = 1, A2 = 2 and so on. Flood-fill down to the size of your EDO
| |
| # Make cell B1 = (1200/EDO size)*A1 and flood-fill this formula all the way down column B
| |
| # Copy-paste column B into Scale Workshop
| |
| # Modify > approximate by harmonics > an afdo selected according to the table below (or choose your own)
| |
| # Modify > reduce
| |
| # Paste the result into the third (C) column in Excel
| |
| # Insert a row at the top of the spreadsheet to use as a header row
| |
| # Title the first column "Edo step", the second column “cents” and the third column "JI ratios"
| |
| Your table is now complete!
| |
|
| |
| Do note that this is not a replacement for a manually curated table of intervals, nor is it even a replacement for a more cleverly computed table of intervals such as those generated by [[Template:Interval table]] or [[Template:Huge table]]. This method is very crude compared to those.
| |
|
| |
| But it is very computationally light, so it can be helpful for really, really big edos that are difficult to document any other way.
| |
|
| |
| Here is the table recommending what afdo to choose (i.e. what number to put for "approximate by harmonics"). The afdos recommended are the superior highly composite numbers (OEIS A002201):
