=**WELCOME to the XENHARMONIC WIKI**= **An open resource for ANYone curious about ANY aspect of microtonal music, xenharmonic music, alternative tuning practices, et cetera.** This wiki is a source for information about alternative (microtonal/xenharmonic) [[musical interval systems]].<span style="line-height: 1.5;"> This includes information about systems of tuning, the relationships between those systems, and the theory behind them. It is added to by volunteers when doing so is convenient for them and is a </span>//<span style="line-height: 1.5;">living wiki</span>//<span style="line-height: 1.5;"> by structure, which means that anyone can add a new page or add content to an existing page. Relevant new content is most welcome! You can get the hang of editing in the [[SandBox]], then dive right in. [[wiki help|Wiki Help]] provides some tips as well. [[Wikifuture]] is a wish list of sorts.</span> ==If you are new to xenharmonic music:== * [[Why Microtonality?]] is an overview of common reasons for learning about xenharmonic/microtonal music * A [[GeneralDiscussion|guide for learning about tunings on the internet]] might help you navigate the information here * The [[MicrotonalTheory|Microtonal Theory]] page offers links to various theoretical approaches to exploring alternative intonational systems * A [[ScaleIndex|scale gallery]] of some useful scales, for those that know how to retune instruments to xenharmonic scales and want to try some out! * Here are [[microtonalListeningList|links to lots]] of microtonal music that has been made, in case you're wondering what it all sounds like. * Here is a section on the [[Microtone|microtonal]] capabilities of various [[microtonalinstruments|instruments]] of (eventually) all sorts. Microtonality can be a rewarding endeavor, so if you're intrigued that there lies an exciting new world to explore beyond the threshold, you're in the right place. ==Links to some popular areas of the Xenharmonic Universe:== * [[Just intonation|Just Intonation]] ** [[Gallery of Just Intervals]] * [[Equal|Equal Temperaments]] ** [[edo##Individual%20pages%20for%20EDOs|Equal divisions of the octave]] * [[Regular Temperaments]] ** Mike Battaglia's [[Mike's Lectures On Regular Temperament Theory|Lectures on Regular Temperaments]] * [[historical temperaments|Historical Temperaments]] * [[people|People]] who have contributed to the overall project of xenharmonic exploration * A list of electronically-available published works on microtonal/xenharmonic music ==__Don't forget about the search function, in the side bar to the left!__== [[image:epaddlenecks.jpg width="315" height="420" align="center"]] <span style="display: block; text-align: center;">Photo courtesy of [[Ethan Schwarz]]</span>
