List of approaches to musical tuning: Difference between revisions

Line 8:

* [[Equal-step tuning]]s: Tunings that use a single interval (and combinations thereof) to form a subtle monoculture of intervals. These include [[edo]]s (equal divisions of the octave), but also many [[nonoctave]] tunings (sometimes called [[edonoi]]).

* [[Regular temperament]]s: (including linear temperaments): a centuries-old practice that has recently undergone a mathematical facelift, in which just intonation is selectively and regularly detuned in various ways, to better meet a variety of compositional desires

* [[Regular temperament]]s (including linear temperaments): a centuries-old practice that has recently undergone a mathematical facelift, in which just intonation is selectively and regularly detuned in various ways, to better meet a variety of compositional desires

*[[MOS scale|Moment of symmetry (MOS)]]: Tunings (or better, scales) that use iterations of a generating interval, modulo a period interval, to produce scales of two step-sizes.

*[[Historical temperaments|Historical western temperaments]]: The (somewhat forgotten) use of [[Pythagorean]] and [[meantone]] tunings and [[well temperament]]s in Western common practice music.
