But there is much still to be discovered with this tuning system. Combination tone harmony opens some interesting doors. The tuning is of course in need of its own theory, something I've been working on for the past year and a half. If you have any interest in the scale, please contact me at <!-- ws:start:WikiTextUrlEmailRule: | But there is much still to be discovered with this tuning system.
