== Tuning by Ear == | |||
After [[9edo]] and [[19edo]], 36edo is one of the easiest tuning systems to recreate tuning solely by ear, due to the way it's purest intervals are arranged. If you view it as a lattice of 4 9edo's (which can be formed by stacking 9 [[7/6]]'s with a comma of less than 2 cents) connected by [[3/2]]'s, you get a tonal diamond with a wolf note between the extreme corners of approximately 7.7 cents, about the same relative error as stacking 12 perfect 3/2's compared to [[12edo]] and obviously a much smaller absolute error. It's a good system to use on large organs that have three manuals. | |||
