Five years ago, I went on a journey of discovery that took me further than I ever expected. It began when I was creating the Conditional Orchestra, a web app that converts weather data into music. For certain weather conditions I wanted to generate music using more than is in the standard western 12 note system (12 TET) but I couldn’t find a suitab...
In nature, when matter vibrates at a given frequency it will often produce harmonics. These are effectively higher pitches (overtones)that are part of a mathematical pattern. Each of these notes can be described using whole number ratios, which belong to the harmonic series. This is sacred maths and can also be found in other aspects of nature. To ...
Equal temperament rests on a fairly simple formula that makes it easy to derive any note. To quote music author Bo Constantinsen, the “12 tone equal temperament divides the sonic distance between harmonics 1 and 2 into 12 equally spaced entities”. Using a programming language, if I want the frequency of the 3rd note in a 12-note octave and we assum...
With the Tuning Synth, you can hear the difference between truePythagorean and other systems. Try listening to the 5th note in Equal Temperament and then in Pythagorean. You should hear and see a slight dip in pitch. This really illustrates the point that Equal Temperament is an approximation and that any two notes (apart from the octave) sounding ...
There is a plethora of ways to visualise sound ranging from 2D wave diagrams to 3D particle systems — I’m sure you’ve seen them all. The most common way to achieve a visual representation of a signal converted from the time domain to the frequency one using FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). When used with programming languages such as JavaScript piping...
The Tuning Synth is an open source, bespoke JavaScript application, which uses as few 3rd party packages as possible. The primary dependency is P5.js, which provides an API for Canvas animation and sound control. As mentioned earlier, the music tuning engine is my own library Freqi. This allowed me to generate the desired frequencies and map them t...
When I started creating the Tuning Synth, my goals were to allow: 1. Anyone to be able to access this tool for free 2. Users to play notes from a wide range of international and historical tuning systems 3. Users to hear the difference between a given note (in a twelve-note octave) in Equal Temperament andJust Intonation. 4. Users to hear the diffe...

Oct 16, 2018 · The Behringer Ultratone KXD12 is another solid option for amplifying your synth at home and out at smaller venues. Its four independent stereo channels each feature separate volume and FX send controls, great for any synthesists without a mixer or those interested in using this amp as a compact, portable PA.
Jan 18, 2009 · In Part 1, Michael explains how to retune the Korg Oasys synthesizer using the Perfect Circle of Sound, tuning fork set and a Korg chromatic tuner. Creating a new scale by tuning the Oasys to the Solfeggio frequency-equivalents required exclusion of dissonant tones 417Hz and 714Hz.

Jul 23, 2021 · 1. Detuning. Here’s a classic sound, the warm beating of oscillators drifting ever so slightly (or not so slightly) against each other. A common approach is to use the same waveforms and have one oscillator tuned to exact pitch, and then set the other oscillator slightly sharp or flat, usually by only a few cents.
