Armodue harmony/Archived version: Difference between revisions

Line 271:

A very particular sound in the Armodue environment is achieved by the symmetrical scale with the structure 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 eka or its variant 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 eka.

These two scales strongly evoke the sound of the "diminished" scales of the dodecatonic tempered system with their alternating tone-semitone pattern (widely used in jazz and blues): c - c# - d# - e - f# g - a - a#- - c (symmetrical scale of type semitone-tone) or c - d - eb - f - gb - g# - a - h - c (symmetrical scale of type tone-semitone). In Armodue, these scales are named for their special quality "neo-diminished" scales. (Actually, they are scales of [[~~Diminished~~|diminished ~~temperament~~]], in 12edo as well as in 16edo!)

These two scales strongly evoke the sound of the "diminished" scales of the dodecatonic tempered system with their alternating tone-semitone pattern (widely used in jazz and blues): c - c# - d# - e - f# g - a - a#- - c (symmetrical scale of type semitone-tone) or c - d - eb - f - gb - g# - a - h - c (symmetrical scale of type tone-semitone). In Armodue, these scales are named for their special quality "neo-diminished" scales. (Actually, they are scales of [[diminished (temperament)|diminished]] temperament, in 12edo as well as in 16edo!)
