::: I think I understand the idea, not sure that this is the correct understanding. First of all, a larger EDO is ''almost never'' a superset of a smaller EDO, because it would be the defeat of the purpose to provide a better approximation to harmonic intervals using more tones. Naturally, you can use a ''subset'' of a larger EDO, corresponding to some smaller EDO (corresponding tones can be simply identical, but only approximately) and use this subset. Perhaps it's just the term "mimicking" sounded confusing to me. — [[User:SAKryukov|SA]], ''Sunday 2020 December 6, 18:55 UTC'' | ::: I think I understand the idea, not sure that this is the correct understanding.

:::: Yeah, the way you put it here is more or less another valid definition of how I'm using the term "mimicking" here, as not every possible subset of the larger EDO actually approximates the smaller EDO, and sometimes, more than one subset of the larger EDO can do the job. For the record, 159edo does have 53edo as a subset | :::: Yeah, the way you put it here is more or less another valid definition of how I'm using the term "mimicking" here, as not every possible subset of the larger EDO actually approximates the smaller EDO, and sometimes, more than one subset of the larger EDO can do the job. For the record, 159edo does have 53edo as a subset- and this is not considered "mimicking"- but that's okay, because 53edo is really really good in its own right when it comes to the 3 prime. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 19:13, 6 December 2020 (UTC) | ||
::: As to deep voices: I meant something much more basic: to me, more deep voices and generally the amount of lower voices sounds more tolerable for the ears, and overly high, especially high-frequency noises, sounds more irritating. I noticed that historically the present-day trend is to emphasize higher pitches, even bass and baritone singers are somewhat rarer these days. I did not mean something like "building from the bass", however, this is an interesting topic. Notably, the Baroque perception of music was different from the modern. These days, we typically hear the main themes in a higher-pitch part and then pay attention to the other detail, including bass. In Baroque, basses played much more fundamental role. — [[User:SAKryukov|SA]], ''Sunday 2020 December 6, 18:55 UTC'' | ::: As to deep voices: I meant something much more basic: to me, more deep voices and generally the amount of lower voices sounds more tolerable for the ears, and overly high, especially high-frequency noises, sounds more irritating.
