: '''ArrowHead''': The first non-12edo tuning I knew about, I got interested in it through Baroque and Renaissance music due to it being an excellent representation of quarter-comma meantone. Personally, I think this is the best alternative tuning for most non-classical Western musicians to use, especially for simple music like contemporary worship music. The number of notes is not overly unwieldy (though, admittedly, on guitar and bass it is pushing it in terms of practicality), and the differences between its sound and 12edo's sound are big enough that people will notice (and therefore they might actually care) but not so big that it sounds jarring like 19edo can be (and often is). | |||
: '''Aura''': Working with Superlocrian in this EDO is again interesting, but it's easier to do with this EDO than with 27edo. | : '''Aura''': Working with Superlocrian in this EDO is again interesting, but it's easier to do with this EDO than with 27edo. | ||
: '''Bozu''': This is sort of the gold standard of meantone tuning. Composite hypopent. Great thirds and fifths and everything else used to make western-esque music, and also some really nifty other spicier options. Very user-friendly. If you start with 12edo and go to 19edo and like it, this would be the obvious next recommendation. My only complaint here is that we are starting to get into the territory of having too many notes to easily perform on a guitar or standard black-and-white-key two row keyboard. Going with subsets at this point is beneficial, but those provide new challenges. | : '''Bozu''': This is sort of the gold standard of meantone tuning. Composite hypopent.
