Above is a table of how I mapped 10 EDO to the Open strings of my Ukulele. The left column is the standard Uke layout, and using those Hertz, I choose similar values for the strings based on the nice table generated for me by Lingot. I set 0 to middle C as in the standard arrangement, and the computer does the rest.</pre></div> | |||

This page will explore a different approach to xenharmonics and micro-tonality than anyone else has attempted. Whereas a lot of people make and use micro tonal Guitars, I have felt that simply beginning with Ukulele instead will make a symbolic and real difference- after all, the Uke is fun, whereas the Guitar is 'serious', right? Not to mention, a hackable Uke can be had for far less than all but the trashiest of guitars. Here's my project in question, a little thing I like to call the Micro-Uke...<br /> | This page will explore a different approach to xenharmonics and micro-tonality than anyone else has attempted.

Now I do apologise because the quality is not the best; it was done with my internal laptop mic and had to have a lot of amplification and noise removal, but hopefully at this price you get a good glimpse of how the uke sounds tonally and a sample of my style of playing. The files I post are all intended to be downloadable, remixable, and sharable, (creative commons license) though I am not sure how to license content on this wiki. Since so little is posted, that's not a problem right now.<br /> | Now I do apologise because the quality is not the best; it was done with my internal laptop mic and had to have a lot of amplification and noise removal, but hopefully at this price you get a good glimpse of how the uke sounds tonally and a sample of my style of playing.

Far more important is the music/sound.<br /> | There are currently no images of microUke1.1 or 1.0 (for which no label/decal exists) but I will post as time allows.
