Hi there!
For now [that was as of 2022 or something, I need to edit this — 2025-01] I’m fairly new to xenharmony, so I’ll try to make my edits conservative. Feel free to write me in the discussion page! Also feel free to edit my grammar a bit, as I’m not a native English speaker.
On XA Discord, I’m 0.5°.
Also, the content of this page and many of its subpages doesn’t quite reflect how I am now (like priorities, interests and knowledge gained) years later. It’s better to systematize all this but I don’t even know where to start and why, so let it be as it is; ask me for any updates and such and I’ll tell you.
Xenharmonic timbres!
So I finally took a small step and made two simple timbres which anyone (CC0) can use in a microtonal-able sampler like Sforzando or TX16Wx (hm no it doesn’t allow that, it seems) to try with non-5 or non-3.5 harmonies! They are at Freesound:
- 110Hz_minus5.flac — a timbre (almost) without multiples of 5, with fundamental of 110 Hz.
- 110Hz_minus3and5.flac — a timbre (almost) without multiples of 5 and 3. This was made from the previous and these multiples of 3 weren’t filtered out too much. But still there’s lot less of them.
Better look at descriptions right at the sample pages, they are a bit more verbose.
Feel free to write me something at the discussion page about them! I haven’t experimented myself yet what they could be good for, and would be very glad to hear anything.
Subpage stuff
- /Timbres — studies in regard to harmonic composition of timbres.
- /Fitting — algorithms and thoughts on fitting arbitrary scales to edos, MOS scales and something.
- Several subpages are template WIPs. (Long ago obsolete as of 2023-12.)
