:: By the way, are you familiar with Harry Partch "tonality diamond" approach ("otonality", "utonality") and his instruments? If you are, do you have your opinion on this matter? I once found it interesting but a closer look made me very skeptical about it.

::: Harry Partch's work on the idea of Otonality and Utonality has actually been an influence for me, but so too has the work of Hugo Riemann.  I don't know what to say about his work on the tonality diamond and Partch's instruments, however, I do disagree with Partch's choices in terms of preferred EDO from the sounds of things. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 17:02, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

:::: Sure. Thank you for your answer and opinion. And I do have some reasons to be skeptical about the diamond approach, but I also see the difficulties in the approaches to the construction of alternative rational ("harmonic", "just") systems. At the same time, the diatonic scales seem to be limiting to some near-classical structures; and there are many works beyond that.
