Thanks for listening and for your kind words Ben!!

@@BotraxDiaz thanks for listening in any case

Thank you!

@@YoVariable thanks!

@@dimitriousnichols785 yeah they are awesome synths! Thanks for listening!

Thanks!

I can get in touch with him if you want. He’s actually making a batch of similar ones now I think. It would need to be sent from Australia of course

@@flagtrap5925 thanks!

@@g-ray7121 true it depends on context a lot as I mentioned in the video. The combination of flat perfect fifths and very flat major thirds does sound pretty wonky in the context of major triads. I think it’s cool though that this pushes us outside the framework of traditional harmony and melody.

i actually really like 0:8:15, it sounds warm and chill, (then again i am biased considering i generally prefer low entropy intervals to be flat than sharp regardless of 12's approx) who knows maybe i just have much higher concordance tolerance

@@g-ray7121 I certainly don’t mind it and would use it in some contexts. It’s very handy to be able to modulate to a flattone key for example to create contrast. I also really like the way flattone sounds melodically. I just don’t go to 26edo specifically for flattone

@@markfdesimone thanks! Would love to hear how it sounds on trombone!

Thanks!

I think 22edo is my favourite too!

@@RayHaglandMusic that’s interesting. Do you have perfect pitch?

@@MicrotonalMaverick I definitely don’t! Watching more of your videos though, this effect has lessened. 😯

Sorry buddy, I’m just too backed up at the moment between my job and working on several massive projects over the next year to get back into playing some complex music live with all these instruments, so not much time for collabs unfortunately. You should definitely make that 17edo album though 💪

@@MicrotonalMaverick alright!

Thanks!! Shoot me an email. I think you can through UA-cam, otherwise on Instagram 🙂

Yes I love the Mercury Tree! Have fun tonight!

@@MicrotonalMaverick I did. Had a great conversation with Ben and Connor, too. One big difference between your music and their current output: They try, fairly successfully, to disguise the "wrong" sound of 17-EDO. You embrace that wrongness with a sheer bloody-minded insistence that "this is NOT wrong", and make it work in a way that transcends its alien, music-by-Martians effect.

@Baribrotzer that’s interesting. I really just write what I like the sound of and put it out there. It’s always interesting to then see how other people perceive it. It isn’t really important to me that it’s broadly accessible, although I’d obviously prefer that it at least finds a niche audience of people who really get something out of it. This isn’t a numbers game for me, because one person listening consciously and being profoundly impacted by something is worth more than a million mindless passive consumers. This is partly why I like to work and make music completely independently because I don’t have any kind of artistic obligation within a fixed market. My life won’t be ruined if I decide to do something that the audience doesn’t like tomorrow and I like having this creative freedom. Re Mercury Tree, I find they definitely put those microtonal intervals to good use!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!

Yeah I was wondering whether I should put it up on its own or wait until I have a few more works to go along with it. Might just put it up on its own and then post my previous single at the same time. Keep an eye out in the next couple of weeks 😉

open.spotify.com/album/7LgTdaG2cJ7UNKKU1ksC43?si=oTSMzYT0T8KaFOd0BFAKRw here it is 😉

@@MicrotonalMaverick oh my god, thank you

Yeah made by the great Jean-Yves in France! It’s called a Woodslide didgeridoo

Thanks!!! 😊

Thanks Orlando!!!

thats the point

@@kasikulewell it’s not the point, but it’s 17-edo, and many mistake notes that don’t sound standard to notes that are “wrong”

Thanks for listening!

Thanks!!!

Haha that’s nice of you to leave your very kind comment again!

I really hope it gives this video more attention in the algorithm!!! It really deserves

@@redopal9796 Thanks! Yeah that would be nice but oh well, can't control the algorithm

Just straight perfect fourths: E, A, D, G, C, F :) There are quite a few chords here that stack perfect fourths on the G, C and F strings. I generally use stacked perfect fourth tunings on all my guitars now (in their respective tunings)

@@MicrotonalMaverick Thanks..are all your guitars EDO's? do you have a favorite tuning?

Thanks Hugo!!!

Thanks :)

Thanks Stephen!

I thought you had purposely run the old one through some kind of distortion module.

@@Lucius_Chiaraviglio haha well I pushed the limiter a bit hard for UA-cam in the original post, which was completely futile and caused UA-cam to compress the audio. In this one there’s actually no limiting happening as it was all taken care of before the limiter in my mastering chain. I’m just increasing the input a tad with Pro-L but it isn’t actually compressing at all anymore, which is actually great.

Order one through Halo guitars, that’s who I got this neck from. They can basically do whatever you want and it’s very good quality. No point going through the whole process of getting one made and then converted, it will end up being much lower quality.

@@MicrotonalMaverick how much did it cost?

They have a page on their website where you can put all the specs in and it will give you the price. You need to contact them for the microtonal fretting. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality (some luthiers told me they thought the prices were excellent) but the microtonal fretting does cost a bit because they use CNC machines (meaning the fret positions are absolutely perfect). If it’s too much maybe ask Warmoth if they can just make the neck without any frets on it at all and get someone else to do the frets? When I contacted them I got the feeling they don’t take any custom requests but it’s worth a shot.

@@MicrotonalMaverick I just looked at halo guitars neck customizer and I'm definitely not paying 800+ for a neck. I can get a fretless neck from warmoth for $402. I might have to either forget the idea of microtonality or try and fret it myself.

There's also the 276.92c subminor third, about 10.3c sharp of 7/6, which is my personal favorite third.

@@g-ray7121 . . . Which is close to 20/17 or even closer to 27/23.
