Neji: Difference between revisions

Line 25:

Nejis are a superset of both [[detempering]] and nemis. Unlike detempering, a neji need not imply a [[mapping]]. Meanwhile, detempering unlike nemis does not require the rational pitch replacements to all be part of the same harmonic series. Nejis and nemis are compatible with [[regular temperament theory]] if they are treated as working in the concrete tuning layer of temperaments.

== Building ~~nejis~~ ==

== Building edo nemis ==

It's possible to create a working ~~neji~~ by simply approximating an edo as closely as possible with selected harmonics. However, it is sometimes preferable to build particular aesthetic choices into a ~~neji~~. One such common choice is to focus on a few intervals in the edo being "~~nejified~~" which are of particular interest. The root harmonic is then selected to approximate these intervals of interest as well as possible; the remaining harmonics to fill in the rest of the edo are chosen based on their ability to fit well with the existing notes.

It's possible to create a working edo nemi by simply approximating an edo as closely as possible with selected harmonics. However, it is sometimes preferable to build particular aesthetic choices into a nemi. One such common choice is to focus on a few intervals in the edo being "nemified" which are of particular interest. The root harmonic is then selected to approximate these intervals of interest as well as possible; the remaining harmonics to fill in the rest of the edo are chosen based on their ability to fit well with the existing notes.
