Original Wikitext content:
<span style="display: block; text-align: right;">[[xenharmonie/29edo|Deutsch]] </span> [[toc|flat]] ---- =<span style="color: #ff4700; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 113%;">29 tone equal temperament</span>= 29edo divides the 2:1 [[xenharmonic/octave|octave]] into 29 equal steps of approximately 41.37931 [[cent|cents]]. It is the 10th [[prime numbers|prime]] edo, following [[23edo]] and coming before [[31edo]]. 29 is the lowest edo which approximates the [[xenharmonic/3_2|3:2]] just fifth more accurately than [[xenharmonic/12edo|12edo]]: 3/2 = 701.955... cents; 17 degrees of 29edo = 703.448... cents. Since the fifth is slightly sharp, 29edo is a [[xenharmonic/positive temperament|positive temperament]] -- a Superpythagorean instead of a Meantone system. The 3 is the only harmonic, of the intelligibly low ones anyway, that 29edo approximates very closely, and it does so quite well. Nonetheless, and rather surprisingly, 29 is the smallest equal division which [[xenharmonic/consistent|consistent]]ly represents the 15 odd limit. It is able to do this since it has an accurate 3, and the 5, 7, 11 and 13, while not very accurate, are all tuned flatly. Hence it tempers out a succession of fairly large commas: 250/243 in the [[xenharmonic/5-limit|5-limit]], 49/48 in the [[xenharmonic/7-limit|7-limit]], 55/54 in the [[xenharmonic/11-limit|11-limit]], and 65/64 in the [[xenharmonic/13-limit|13-limit]]. If using these approximations is desired, 29edo actually shines, and it can be used for such things as an alternative to [[xenharmonic/19edo|19edo]] for [[xenharmonic/Marvel temperaments|negri]], as well as an alternative to [[xenharmonic/22edo|22edo]] or [[xenharmonic/15edo|15edo]] for porcupine. For those who enjoy the bizarre character of Father temperament, 29edo can also be used to support that temperament, if one imagines 11\29 is approximating both 5/4 and 4/3 (ignoring the better approximations at 10\29 and 12\29, respectively). Another possible use for 29edo is as an equally tempered para-pythagorean scale. Using its fifth as a generator leads to a variant of [[xenharmonic/Schismatic family|garibaldi temperament]] which is not very accurate but which has relatively low 13-limit complexity. However, it gives the POL2 generator for [[Chromatic pairs#Edson|edson temperaament]] with essentially perfect accuracy, only 0.034 cents sharp of it. Edson is a 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup temperament, and 29 it represents the 2.3.11/5.13/5 subgroup to very high accuracy, and the 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 to a lesser but still good accuracy, and so can be used with this subgroup, which is liberally supplied with chords such as the 1-11/7-13/7 (7:11:13) chord, the [[xenharmonic/The Archipelago|barbados triad]] 1-13/10-3/2 (10:13:15), the minor barbados triad 1-15/13-3/2, the 1-14/11-3/2 (22:28:33) triad, the 1-13/11-3/2 triad (22:26:33), and the [[xenharmonic/petrmic triad|petrmic triad]], a 13-limit [[xenharmonic/Dyadic chord|essentially tempered dyadic chord]]. 29 tempers out 352/351, 676/675 and 4000/3993 from the 2.3.11/5.13/5 subgroup, and in addition 196/195 and 364/363 from the 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup, so we have various relationships from the tempering, such as the fact that the 1-13/11-3/2 chord and the 1-14/11-3/2 chord are inverses of each other, a major-minor pairing. A larger subgroup containing both of these subgroups is the [[xenharmonic/k*N subgroups|3*29 subgroup]] 2.3.125.175.275.325; on this subgroup 29 tunes the same as 87, and the commas of 29 on this subgroup are the same as the 13-limit commas of 87. Still another subgroup of interest is the [[xenharmonic/k*N subgroups|2*29 subgroup]] 2.3.25.35.55.65.85; on this subgroup 29 tunes the same as 58 and has the same 17-limit commas. =Intervals and linear temperaments= [[List of 29et rank two temperaments by badness]] ||~ Degrees of 29-EDO ||~ Cents value coarse/fine DMS value ||~ Approx. ratios of the [[15-limit]] ||~ Generator for temperaments || || 0 || 0 0° || 1/1 || || || 1 || 41.379, 49.655 12°24'50" || 25/24~33/32~56/55~81/80 || || || 2 || 82.759, 99.310 24°49'39" || 21/20 || [[xenharmonic/Nautilus|Nautilus]] || || 3 || 124.138, [[tel/148.9655|148.9655]] 37°14'29" || 16/15, 15/14, 14/13, 13/12 || [[xenharmonic/Negri|Negri]]/[[xenharmonic/Negril|Negril]] || || 4 || 165.517, 198.621 49°39'19" || 12/11, 11/10 || [[xenharmonic/Porcupine|Porcupine]]/[[xenharmonic/Porky|Porky]]/[[xenharmonic/Coendou|Coendou]] || || 5 || 206.897, 248.276 62°4'8" || 9/8 || || || 6 || 248.276, 297.391 74°28'58" || 8/7, 7/6, 15/13 || [[xenharmonic/Chromatic pairs#Bridgetown|Bridgetown]]/[[xenharmonic/Immunity|Immunity]] || || 7· || 289.655, 347.586 86°53'48" || 13/11 || || || 8 || [[tel/331.0345|331.0345]], 397.241 99°18'37" || 6/5, 11/9 || || || 9 || 372.414, 446.896 111°43'27" || 5/4, 16/13 || || || 10 || 413.793, 496.552 124°8'17" || 14/11 || [[xenharmonic/Roman|Roman]] || || 11 || 455.172, 546.207 136°33'6" || 9/7, 13/10 || [[xenharmonic/Ammonite|Ammonite]] || || 12· || 496.552, 595.862 148°57'56" || 4/3 || [[xenharmonic/Cassandra|Cassandra]] [[Chromatic pairs#Edson|Edson]] [[Chromatic pairs#Pepperoni|Pepperoni]] || || 13 || 537.931, 645.517 161°21'46" || 11/8, 15/11 || [[Wilsec]] || || 14 || 579.310, 695.172 173°46'35" || 7/5, 18/13 || [[xenharmonic/Tritonic|Tritonic]] || || 15 || 620.690, 744.828 186°13'25" || 10/7, 13/9 || || || 16 || 662.069, 794.483 198°38'14" || 16/11, 22/15 || || || 17· || 703.448, 844.138 211°2'4" || 3/2 || || || 18 || 744.828, 893.793 223°26'54" || 14/9, 20/13 || || || 19 || 786.207, 943.448 235°51'43" || 11/7 || || || 20 || 827.586, 993.103 248°16'33* || 8/5, 13/8 || || || 21 || [[tel/868.9655|868.9655]], 1042.759 262°41'23" || 5/3, 18/11 || || || 22· || 910.345, 1092.414 273°6'12" || 22/13 || || || 23 || 951.724, 1142.069 285°31'2" || 7/4, 12/7, 26/15 || || || 24 || 993.103, 1191.724 297°55'52" || 16/9 || || || 25 || 1034.483, 1241.379 310°20'41" || 11/6, 20/11 || || || 26 || 1075.862, 1291.0345 322°45'31" || 15/8, 28/15, 13/7, 24/13 || || || 27 || 1117.241, 1340.690 335°10'21" || 40/21 || || || 28 || 1158.621, 1390.345 347°35'10" || 48/25~64/33~55/28 ~160/81 || || See also: [[29edo solfege]] [[image:29edothumb.png caption="this example in Sagittal notation shows 29-edo as a fifth-tone system."]] ==Selected just intervals by error== The following table shows how [[Just-24|some prominent just intervals]] are represented in 29edo (ordered by absolute error). || **Interval, complement** || **Error (abs., in [[cent|cents]])** || ||= [[13_11|13/11]], [[22_13|22/13]] ||= 0.445 || ||= [[11_10|11/10]], [[20_11|20/11]] ||= 0.513 || ||= [[15_13|15/13]], [[26_15|26/15]] ||= 0.535 || ||= [[13_10|13/10]], [[20_13|20/13]] ||= 0.958 || ||= [[15_11|15/11]], [[22_15|22/15]] ||= 0.980 || ||= [[4_3|4/3]], [[3_2|3/2]] ||= 1.493 || ||= [[9_8|9/8]], [[16_9|16/9]] ||= 2.987 || ||= [[7_5|7/5]], [[10_7|10/7]] ||= 3.202 || ||= [[14_11|14/11]], [[11_7|11/7]] ||= 3.715 || ||= [[14_13|14/13]], [[13_7|13/7]] ||= 4.160 || ||= [[15_14|15/14]], [[28_15|28/15]] ||= 4.695 || ||= [[16_15|16/15]], [[15_8|15/8]] ||= 12.407 || ||= [[16_13|16/13]], [[13_8|13/8]] ||= 12.941 || ||= [[11_8|11/8]], [[16_11|16/11]] ||= 13.387 || ||= [[5_4|5/4]], [[8_5|8/5]] ||= 13.900 || ||= [[13_12|13/12]], [[24_13|24/13]] ||= 14.435 || ||= [[12_11|12/11]], [[11_6|11/6]] ||= 14.880 || ||= [[6_5|6/5]], [[5_3|5/3]] ||= 15.393 || ||= [[18_13|18/13]], [[13_9|13/9]] ||= 15.928 || ||= [[11_9|11/9]], [[18_11|18/11]] ||= 16.373 || ||= [[10_9|10/9]], [[9_5|9/5]] ||= 16.886 || ||= [[8_7|8/7]], [[7_4|7/4]] ||= 17.102 || ||= [[7_6|7/6]], [[12_7|12/7]] ||= 18.595 || ||= [[9_7|9/7]], [[14_9|14/9]] ||= 20.088 || =Commas= 29 EDO tempers out the following commas.

Nautilus also extends to the 13-limit much more easily than does standard porcupine. The MOS nautilus[14] contains both "even" tetrads (approximating 4:5:6:7 or its inverse) as well as "odd" tetrads (approximating the "Bohlen-Pierce-like" chord 9:11:13:15, or its inverse). Both types are recognizable and consonant, if somewhat heavily tempered. Moreover, one of the four types of tetrads may be built on **each** scale degree of nautilus[14], thus there are as many chords as there are notes, so nautilus[14] has a "circulating" quality to it with as much freedom of modulation as possible. To be exact, there are 4 "major-even", 4 "minor-even", 3 "major-odd", and 3 "minor-odd" chords. Fourteen-note MOSes are worth looking at because taking every other note of them gives a heptatonic, and in many cases diatonic-like, scale. Nautilus[14] is no exception; although the resulting porcupine "diatonic" scale sounds somewhat different from diatonic scales generated from fifths, it can still provide some degree of familiarity. Furthermore, every diatonic chord progression will have at least one loose analogue in nautilus[14], although the chord types might change (for instance, it is possible to have a I-IV-V chord progression where the I is major-odd, and the IV and V are both major-even; the V in this case being on a narrow or "odd" fifth rather than a perfect or "even" fifth). The fact that the generator size is also a step size means that nautilus makes a good candidate for a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_keyboard|generalized keyboard]]; the fingering of nautilus[14] becomes very simple as a result, perhaps even simpler than with traditional keyboards, despite there being more notes. If one can tolerate the tuning error (which is roughly equal to that of 12edo, albeit in the opposite direction for the 5- and 7-limits), this tetradecatonic scale is worth exploring. 29edo is often neglected since it falls so close to the much more popular and well-studied 31edo, but 29 does have its own advantages, and this is one of them. =Scales= [[xenharmonic/bridgetown9|bridgetown9]] [[xenharmonic/bridgetown14|bridgetown14]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP2Z4Gy8lds|Escala Tonal de 17 tonos - Charles Loli]] =Music= [[http://www.microtonalismo.com/el-teclado-29-edo|Mp3 29EDO - Escala tonal de 17 notas]]by [[http://musicool.us/musicool/armonia.htm|Charles Loli A.]] [[http://clones.soonlabel.com/public/micro/gene_ward_smith/Others/Igs/Paint%20in%20the%20Water%2029.mp3|Paint in the Water 29]] by [[xenharmonic/IgliashonJones|Igliashon Jones]] [[http://micro.soonlabel.com/gene_ward_smith/Others/Igs/NautilusReverie.mp3|Nautilus Reverie]] by [[IgliashonJones|Igliashon Calvin Jones-Coolidge]] [[http://micro.soonlabel.com/gene_ward_smith/Others/Igs/Howling%20of%20the%20Holy.mp3|Howling of the Holy]] by [[xenharmonic/IgliashonJones|Igliashon Jones]] [[http://micro.soonlabel.com/tuning-survey/daily20111026-bridgetown-14.mp3|Route 14 in Bridgetown]] by [[xenharmonic/Chris Vaisvil|Chris Vaisvil]] [[http://www.angelfire.com/mo/oljare/images/crowning.mid|The Crowning Song]] by Mats Öljare [[http://www.angelfire.com/mo/oljare/images/ninedays.mid|Nine Days Later]] by Mats Öljare [[http://www.angelfire.com/mo/oljare/images/stranded.mid|Stranded at Sea]] by Mats Öljare ==Instruments== [[@http://www.microtonalismo.com/|Guitar 29EDO]] * ====**[[http://www.microtonalismo.com/proyecto-xvii|Guitar 29EDO from Peruvian - Charles Loli and Antonio Huamani]]**==== > [[image:http://content.pimp-my-profile.com/i116/2/10/29/f_735065b21747.jpg width="321" height="891"]] [[@http://www.microtonalismo.com/|Bass 29EDO]] * ====**[[http://www.microtonalismo.com/proyecto-xvii|Bass 29EDO from Peruvian - Charles Loli and Antonio Huamani]]**==== > [[image:https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/r90/550502_538613626155939_2005925977_n.jpg width="305" height="936"]]

It is the 10th <a class="wiki_link" href="/prime%20numbers">prime</a> edo, following <a class="wiki_link" href="/23edo">23edo</a> and coming before <a class="wiki_link" href="/31edo">31edo</a>.<br /> <br /> 29 is the lowest edo which approximates the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/3_2">3:2</a> just fifth more accurately than <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/12edo">12edo</a>: 3/2 = 701.955... cents; 17 degrees of 29edo = 703.448... cents. Since the fifth is slightly sharp, 29edo is a <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/positive%20temperament">positive temperament</a> -- a Superpythagorean instead of a Meantone system.<br /> <br /> The 3 is the only harmonic, of the intelligibly low ones anyway, that 29edo approximates very closely, and it does so quite well. Nonetheless, and rather surprisingly, 29 is the smallest equal division which <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/consistent">consistent</a>ly represents the 15 odd limit. It is able to do this since it has an accurate 3, and the 5, 7, 11 and 13, while not very accurate, are all tuned flatly. Hence it tempers out a succession of fairly large commas: 250/243 in the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/5-limit">5-limit</a>, 49/48 in the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/7-limit">7-limit</a>, 55/54 in the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/11-limit">11-limit</a>, and 65/64 in the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/13-limit">13-limit</a>. If using these approximations is desired, 29edo actually shines, and it can be used for such things as an alternative to <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/19edo">19edo</a> for <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Marvel%20temperaments">negri</a>, as well as an alternative to <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/22edo">22edo</a> or <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/15edo">15edo</a> for porcupine. For those who enjoy the bizarre character of Father temperament, 29edo can also be used to support that temperament, if one imagines 11\29 is approximating both 5/4 and 4/3 (ignoring the better approximations at 10\29 and 12\29, respectively).<br /> <br /> Another possible use for 29edo is as an equally tempered para-pythagorean scale. Using its fifth as a generator leads to a variant of <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Schismatic%20family">garibaldi temperament</a> which is not very accurate but which has relatively low 13-limit complexity. However, it gives the POL2 generator for <a class="wiki_link" href="/Chromatic%20pairs#Edson">edson temperaament</a> with essentially perfect accuracy, only 0.034 cents sharp of it.<br /> <br /> Edson is a 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup temperament, and 29 it represents the 2.3.11/5.13/5 subgroup to very high accuracy, and the 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 to a lesser but still good accuracy, and so can be used with this subgroup, which is liberally supplied with chords such as the 1-11/7-13/7 (7:11:13) chord, the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/The%20Archipelago">barbados triad</a> 1-13/10-3/2 (10:13:15), the minor barbados triad 1-15/13-3/2, the 1-14/11-3/2 (22:28:33) triad, the 1-13/11-3/2 triad (22:26:33), and the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/petrmic%20triad">petrmic triad</a>, a 13-limit <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Dyadic%20chord">essentially tempered dyadic chord</a>. 29 tempers out 352/351, 676/675 and 4000/3993 from the 2.3.11/5.13/5 subgroup, and in addition 196/195 and 364/363 from the 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup, so we have various relationships from the tempering, such as the fact that the 1-13/11-3/2 chord and the 1-14/11-3/2 chord are inverses of each other, a major-minor pairing. A larger subgroup containing both of these subgroups is the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/k%2AN%20subgroups">3*29 subgroup</a> 2.3.125.175.275.325; on this subgroup 29 tunes the same as 87, and the commas of 29 on this subgroup are the same as the 13-limit commas of 87. Still another subgroup of interest is the <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/k%2AN%20subgroups">2*29 subgroup</a> 2.3.25.35.55.65.85; on this subgroup 29 tunes the same as 58 and has the same 17-limit commas.<br /> <br /> <!-- ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:2:<h1> --><h1 id="toc1"><a name="Intervals and linear temperaments"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:2 -->Intervals

ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:8:<h2> --><h2 id="toc4"><a name="Commas-The Tetradecatonic System"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:8 -->The Tetradecatonic System</h2> <br /> A variant of porcupine supported in 29edo is <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/nautilus">nautilus</a>, which splits the porcupine generator in half (tempering out 50:49 in the process), thus resulting in a different mapping for 7 than standard porcupine. Nautilus also extends to the 13-limit much more easily than does standard porcupine.<br /> <br /> The MOS nautilus[14] contains both "even" tetrads (approximating 4:5:6:7 or its inverse) as well as "odd" tetrads (approximating the "Bohlen-Pierce-like" chord 9:11:13:15, or its inverse). Both types are recognizable and consonant, if somewhat heavily tempered. Moreover, one of the four types of tetrads may be built on <strong>each</strong> scale degree of nautilus[14], thus there are as many chords as there are notes, so nautilus[14] has a "circulating" quality to it with as much freedom of modulation as possible. To be exact, there are 4 "major-even", 4 "minor-even", 3 "major-odd", and 3 "minor-odd" chords.<br /> <br /> Fourteen-note MOSes are worth looking at because taking every other note of them gives a heptatonic, and in many cases diatonic-like, scale. Nautilus[14] is no exception; although the resulting porcupine "diatonic" scale sounds somewhat different from diatonic scales generated from fifths, it can still provide some degree of familiarity. Furthermore, every diatonic chord progression will have at least one loose analogue in nautilus[14], although the chord types might change (for instance, it is possible to have a I-IV-V chord progression where the I is major-odd, and the IV and V are both major-even; the V in this case being on a narrow or "odd" fifth rather than a perfect or "even" fifth).<br /> <br /> The fact that the generator size is also a step size means that nautilus makes a good candidate for a <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_keyboard" rel="nofollow">generalized keyboard</a>; the fingering of nautilus[14] becomes very simple as a result, perhaps even simpler than with traditional keyboards, despite there being more notes.<br /> <br /> If one can tolerate the tuning error (which is roughly equal to that of 12edo, albeit in the opposite direction for the 5- and 7-limits), this tetradecatonic scale is worth exploring. 29edo is often neglected since it falls so close to the much more popular and well-studied 31edo, but 29 does have its own advantages, and this is one of them.<br /> <br /> <!-- ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:10:<h1> --><h1 id="toc5"><a name="Scales"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:10 -->Scales</h1> <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/bridgetown9">bridgetown9</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/bridgetown14">bridgetown14</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP2Z4Gy8lds" rel="nofollow">Escala Tonal de 17 tonos - Charles Loli</a><br /> <!-- ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:12:<h1> --><h1 id="toc6"><a name="Music"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:12 -->Music</h1> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.microtonalismo.com/el-teclado-29-edo" rel="nofollow">Mp3 29EDO - Escala tonal de 17 notas</a>by <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://musicool.us/musicool/armonia.htm" rel="nofollow">Charles Loli A.</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://clones.soonlabel.com/public/micro/gene_ward_smith/Others/Igs/Paint%20in%20the%20Water%2029.mp3" rel="nofollow">Paint in the Water 29</a> by <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/IgliashonJones">Igliashon Jones</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://micro.soonlabel.com/gene_ward_smith/Others/Igs/NautilusReverie.mp3" rel="nofollow">Nautilus Reverie</a> by <a class="wiki_link" href="/IgliashonJones">Igliashon Calvin Jones-Coolidge</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://micro.soonlabel.com/gene_ward_smith/Others/Igs/Howling%20of%20the%20Holy.mp3" rel="nofollow">Howling of the Holy</a> by <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/IgliashonJones">Igliashon Jones</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://micro.soonlabel.com/tuning-survey/daily20111026-bridgetown-14.mp3" rel="nofollow">Route 14 in Bridgetown</a> by <a class="wiki_link" href="http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Chris%20Vaisvil">Chris Vaisvil</a><br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.angelfire.com/mo/oljare/images/crowning.mid" rel="nofollow">The Crowning Song</a> by Mats Öljare<br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.angelfire.com/mo/oljare/images/ninedays.mid" rel="nofollow">Nine Days Later</a> by Mats Öljare<br /> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.angelfire.com/mo/oljare/images/stranded.mid" rel="nofollow">Stranded at Sea</a> by Mats Öljare<br /> <br /> <!-- ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:14:<h2> --><h2 id="toc7"><a name="Music-Instruments"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:14 -->Instruments</h2> <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.microtonalismo.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Guitar 29EDO</a><br /> <ul><li><!-- ws:start:WikiTextHeadingRule:16:<h4> --><h4 id="toc8"><a name="Music-Instruments--Guitar 29EDO from Peruvian - Charles Loli and Antonio Huamani"></a><!-- ws:end:WikiTextHeadingRule:16 --><strong><a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.microtonalismo.com/proyecto-xvii" rel="nofollow">Guitar 29EDO from Peruvian - Charles Loli and Antonio Huamani</a></strong></h4> <br /> <!-- ws:start:WikiTextRemoteImageRule:752:<img src="http://content.pimp-my-profile.com/i116/2/10/29/f_735065b21747.jpg" alt="" title="" style="height: 891px;
