This page presents a novelty topic.

It may contain ideas which are less likely to find practical applications in music, or numbers or structures that are arbitrary or exceedingly small, large, or complex.

Novelty topics are often developed by a single person or a small group. As such, this page may also contain idiosyncratic terms, notation, or conceptual frameworks.

This user page is editable by any wiki editor.

As a general rule, most users expect their user space to be edited only by themselves, except for minor edits (e.g. maintenance), undoing obviously harmful edits such as vandalism or disruptive editing, and user talk pages.

However, by including this message box, the author of this user page has indicated that this page is open to contributions from other users (e.g. content-related edits).

A lucky scale[idiosyncratic term] (ed777c) is an equal-step tuning in which the interval 777 cents is divided in a given number of equal steps. The idea was first explored by MTEVE and later expanded upon by Budjarn Lambeth.
