http://www.justintonation.net/ if you've ever wondered what the 'proper' fifth sounds like, here's an mp3 file example.. if you're wonering what just intonation is, it is the return to what was the original, more precise measuring of our twelve tone scale through which an instrument could only be tuned to one key at a time... this was a pain in the ass, so they approximated the scale into what we now use, having lost the original, more natural harmonies to convenience..apparently we're all brainwashed... i'm trying to do a track now using this just intonation... i'm not really hearing it yet... anyone have success with this? i think my problem is that i'm waiting for something really fucked up to happen, like my reality caving in and eye sight going..... nat http://www.littlefurythings.net _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement?
