The author of XenNote, a game mod for playing xenharmonic music in Minecraft.
I am more a theorist than a musician. My motivation of studying xen is acturally due to my interest in math.
When acturally work with xen music, I only use softwares, since I cannot play any instruments well — even 12edo ones. When working with different timbres, I feel that consonance and dissonance differs. Complex JI intervals (e.g. 81/64) are more consonant than tempered sinple intervals (e.g. a meantone fifth) for synthetic waves (specifically, the parabolic wave, which is misnamed as “semisine” in ScaleWorkshop), but vise versa for real instrument samples.
