[[toc]]
=Explanation= 
The tuning tables on this page are specifically designed for the tuning system of the [[qanun]] (see the link for details on the system of tuning and playing a qanun with "mandals/orabs").

The whole table covers roughly the range of a fourth (the range where the ajnas - maqam tetrachords - reside).
Each row corresponds to one string of the qanun. In the first column stands the basic (relative) tuning of a string while the following columns indicate possible intervals that can be reached via lowering the mandals/orabs.

The first table contains the cent values and the second the approximated just intervals, sometimes differing between ascending and descending ratios.

Any given configuration of mandal/orab positions, resulting in a certain set of pitches that can be played at a given time
(base for a maqam tetrachord) is represented by a choice of one cell in each row.

=Older systems= 
==First system J.J.Weiss== 
Inequal subdivision of the [[2187_2048|apotome (2187/2048, 113.7 cents)]] into 7 parts (8 mandals/orabs).
Rough subdivision into one [[81_80|syntonic comma (81/80, 21.5 cents)]], one [[25_24|Zarlino semitone (25/24, 70.7 cents)]] and another syntonic comma. Finer subdivision of the 25/24.
(luthier Ejder Gulec)

Positioning of the mandals at: 22, 13, 13, 12, 16,|16, 22 cents.
