Hello there! I have to wonder what brings a physicist like you to microtonality... --Aura (talk) 07:57, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello Aura! — SA:
I'm not sure I'm answering in a technically correct way, please help me if I don't. To answer your question: will you take a look at my articles referenced on my page? For example, I can explain how tonal systems work and what part of musical perception is poorly natural, and what part is cultural. I invented some microtonal musical instruments with some exceptional properties. You can try to play them right on your browser, and, if you have a touchscreen, with ten fingers...
I'll first take a look at your Wiki page gladly answer if you have any questions...
Hm... I can't seem to find the articles anymore... --Aura (talk) 15:15, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
What articles? — SA
On the my page I referenced, there are three articles, under «Original publications», and historically first one under «See also» (this first one is not microtonal, but theoretical things are mostly there)...
Here:
Musical Study with Isomorphic Computer Keyboard
Microtonal Music Study with Chromatic Lattice Keyboard
Sound Builder, Web Audio Synthesizer
Can you click and see them?
Okay, I see them now... For the record, I'm trying to work with 159edo, and it would be great if we could devise a way to play with that in actual performance- e.g. different preset tunings for individual notes that can be changed on the fly by a push of two buttons that modify the pitch of any given note by one step of 159edo- and yes, I'm actually trying to write a song that uses an approximation of 159edo. --Aura (talk) 15:30, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
The reason I like 159edo so much is that you have near-perfect approximations of both the 3-limit and the 11-limit. --Aura (talk) 15:35, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
