Lumatone mapping for 26edo: Difference between revisions

== Diatonic ==

Being in the [[flattone]] part of [[meantone]], and indeed at the flat end of [[flattone]] itself, 26edo requires some adjustment to convert [[common practice]] music to sound right, and what is technically a diatonic layout (although fairly extreme in its softness) may require different usage than in a more middle-of-the-road diatonic tuning. [[YoVariable]] demonstrates this mapping in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01w70PbbT3o ''Jingle Bells (26edo microtonal Lumatone cover + Mystery Song)''] (2025) and explains the harmonic characteristics of 26edo (with demonstrations of chord shapes on this layout) in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrZ-PoUXGTg ''A rough introduction to 26edo on the Lumatone'']. However, being at the flat end of flattone, 26edo does not have very accurate 5-limit approximations, so other options are probably preferable.
