==Welcome to the Xenharmonic Wiki!==

== ~~Getting started~~ ==

The Xenharmonic wiki is an open resource for information about [[Musical tuning|Musical Tuning]]. This includes information about systems of tuning, the relationships between those systems, and the theory and math behind them.

This wiki is created by volunteers. Relevant new content is most welcome! You can get the hang of editing in the [[SandBox|Sandbox]], then dive right in. [[wiki help|Wiki Help]] provides some tips as well. [[wikifuture|Wikifuture]] is a wish list of sorts.

* [[Why use alternative tunings?|Why use alternative tunings?]] is an overview of common reasons for learning about tunings other than standard western tuning.

* The [[Approaches to Musical Tuning|Approaches to Musical Tuning]] page offers links to various theoretical approaches to exploring alternative intonation systems

* Here are [[MicrotonalListeningList|links to lots]] of alternatively tuned music that has been made, in case you're wondering what it all sounds like.

==Links to some popular areas of the Xenharmonic Universe==
