:::: You are right in saying that in the classic notation, accidentals are not just modifiers for single notes, but signs that indicate the change of the tonal base. The classical and quartertone accidentals as found in this system actually have the same function, believe it or not- yes, this is even true of the combinations of these accidentals and the syntonic comma arrows. I mean, if Jacob Collier can seamlessly modulate from E-Natrual Major to G-Demisharp Major, I want to know the specifics of the notes he uses, and if changing keys seamlessly like that involves using different tunings for notes, I want to see the tuning changes in action- hence the need for so many accidentals. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 22:50, 6 October 2020 (UTC) | :::: You are right in saying that in the classic notation, accidentals are not just modifiers for single notes, but signs that indicate the change of the tonal base.

:::: Nevertheless, we do need feedback from others who did not participate in the development, and I'm hoping that my reasoning for the sheer number of accidentals- namely my need to see tuning changes in action- makes sense to these other people as well. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 23:08, 6 October 2020 (UTC) |
