Lumatone mapping for 78edo: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

There are many conceivable ways to map [[78edo]] onto the onto the Lumatone keyboard. However, since it has 2 mutually-exclusive rings of [[39edo]] fifths, the [[Standard Lumatone mapping for Pythagorean]] is not one of them. The second best 5th produces three mutually-exclusive rings of [[26edo]] 5ths, so that doesn't work either, and the third ~~& 4th~~ best are out of the diatonic tuning range. On the other hand, the [[keen]] mapping can cover the whole gamut and make harmonics easy to play together, although it needs to be expanded from [[2L 8s]] to [[10L 2s]] to hit every ~~single~~ note.

On the other hand, the [[keen]] mapping can cover the whole gamut and make harmonics easy to play together, although it needs to be expanded from [[2L 8s]] to [[10L 2s]] to hit every note.

The [[7L 3s]] neutral thirds mapping also covers the whole gamut about as efficiently as possible and keeps octaves closer to horizontal.
