Original Wikitext content:
Kite Giedraitis is a musician, author, theorist and software developer. He has developed several notation systems: His [[Kite's color notation|color notation]] represents each prime via 1 or 2 colors (2 = clear, 3 = white, 5 = yellow for otonal and green for utonal, etc.). Combined with standard diatonic notation, any ratio can be expressed as a color plus a degree, e.g. "blue third" for 7/6. There is a rigorous one-to-one correspondence with ratios and color notation, making it ideal for JI. But it can also be applied to temperaments and EDOs, since ratios are often used to refer to intervals in such tunings. His [[Ups and Downs Notation|ups and downs notation]] represents every key in an EDO. Standard notation is used to represent the chain of fifths, and for EDOs in which 7 fifths octave-reduced is one EDOstep (12edo, 19edo, etc.) this is sufficient. For other EDOs, the up symbol "^" and the down symbol "v" represent raising and lowering the pitch by one EDOstep. For example, in 22-edo, 7 fifths = 3 EDOsteps, and 22edo would be written: C-Db-Db^-Dv-D-Eb-Eb^-Ev-E-F-Gb-Gb^-Gv-G-Ab-Ab^-Av-A-Bb-Bb^-Bv-B-C P1-m2-^m2-vM2-M2-m3-^m3-vM3-M3-P4-d5-^d5-vP5-P5-m6-^m6-vM6-M6-m7-^m7-vM7-M7-P8 Just as each black key has two names in standard notation, each key and each interval has multiple names: Db^ = C#v and ^d5 = vA4. He has written alt-tuner, unique from other microtonal software in several ways: It allows dynamic retuning via midi input from the musician, in the form of keyswitches and/or foot pedals. This in turn allows the "holy grail" of retuning: adaptive just intonation. It features a color-coded lattice and a graph of all intervals up to an octave, both of which responds to tuning changes.
