: I'm busy with my platform and keyboard programming. I decided to take a much wider road: develop some more and some replacement visual components corresponding to different keyboards, including a new one suitable for your paradiatonic constructs — my idea is to present 7 scales at the same time on a single keyboard, still thinking of some form of switching modes on the fly, combined with transpositions, or something like that. At the same time, I implemented a prototype for the playable lattice presented by Kite Giedraitis: [[Color_notation|Color_notation]]. Even though it is called "notation", the main point here is the choice of the tonal system itself, which can be reduced to the choice of a 4-generator set, and its mapping to the geometry. (Why, why musicians often mess up musical and notation aspects together? Didn't they figure out that tight coupling is a big anti-pattern?) I've chosen to implement the 27-key variant, which I consider as a good variant of an "extended just" scale. Are you familiar with this particular system? What do you think? — [[User:SAKryukov|SA]], ''Sunday 2020 December 6, 18:39 UTC'' | : I'm busy with my platform and keyboard programming.

:: Ah. That makes sense. While I am familiar with color notation to an extent, I should point out that Kite and I have a disagreement when it comes to the usage of intervals like the 40/27 grave fifth. For instance, Kite thinks that interval ought to just be avoided whenever possible, while I think that 40/27 is actually useful when in the right position within a scale and in the hands of the right composer. If you are asking whether or not I'm familiar with a 27-key system, I have to say that I'm mostly familiar with the traditional 12-key layout when it comes to actually playing on instruments. That said, I do think I'm willing to experiment with other key layouts- that is, assuming I ever have the funds to get my hands on such things as I really don't have a lot of money. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 18:54, 6 December 2020 (UTC) |
