Talk:72 equal temperament

message: The "theoretical properties" section is "original research", unreferenced and poorly written.
The crass use of the term "tuning theory", as if speaking of some well-known or established school, applied to the tuning theory of a handful of relatively isolated people, is not acceptable. This section has had "citation needed" flags for a while and now has a "personal essay" tag. I'll give a few more weeks and if noone steps forward to defend it, erase.

message: I would strongly suggest that the author find out more about present-day composers who are employing 72 ET.  Several fairly prominent German composers have explored these resources extensively, and the articles discussing these developments do not appear at all in the bibliography.  
My solo cello work Recoil treats 72 ET serially; this work has been performed over a hundred times in about 12 countries.  I have discussed 72 ET in several articles in the Wolke Verlag book series, New Music Aesthetics in the 21st century; in vol. 6, I present an extended analysis of Recoil.

message: A perfect eleventh is 8:3, so this thing that is being called the eleventh harmonic might be the complement of 11:8. 8:3 and 11:8 are nowhere near each other. Since 12:8 is a perfect fifth, it might be called a diminished fifth, an obtuse undecimal fifth, or something. This eleventh harmonic term should only describe the physical harmony in the harmonic series, IMAO. 216.234.170.96 (talk) 04:51, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  pick one? 

message: The material on the Miracle and Blackjack scales needs attention, both in expression and presentation.  Further, the introduced symbols q and r have no names except those single letters, nor any practical indication of their sizes relative to the secor (s) or each other, which makes the scale diagrams much less informative than they might be. Also, those diagrams could be better distinguished from the text, perhaps by simply adding borders or indenting them.  Finally, the references need improving beyond a single webpage.

Talk:Diatonic genus

message: The article uses the term diatonic without adequate explanation. This term, along with chromatic, is the cause of serious uncertainties at several Wikipedia articles, and in the broader literature. (Specifically, here, an unsourced and disputed etymology for diatonic is appealed to.) Some of us thought that both terms needed special coverage, so we started up a new article: Diatonic and chromatic. Why not have a look, and join the discussion? Be ready to have comfortable assumptions challenged!

Talk:Arab tone system

message: Everything on this page is wrong.  There is no equal division into twenty-four quarter tones.
1.  the tone system is not based on an equal division of the octave; fourths & fifths are perfect, which from the start, rules out the equal quarter tones.
2. at the cairo conference in 1932, they tested the 24-tone theory by tuning a qanun to those equal tuned notes, and then played musical examples for arab musicians.  all agreed it was out of tune.
3. in actual practice, there are more notes in between a half-tone than 1.  there are more on the order of 12-20 different notes in use in between a standard half step.  the so-called "quarter tones" differ in their intonation from maqam to maqam; there are also several differently tuned varieties of "natural" and "flat."
4. touma (who unfortunately is a bad source on most things) is only quoting from one old theorist who claimed that there was a 24 tone system; but many other theorists over the course of arabic music history have refuted that with other experiments.
more references to follow.
Abushumays 02:57, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I fully agree; this article is grossly insufficient. Although an equal-tempered 24-tone system has been used to approximate the system used in Arab music, it is a poor approximation of practice, especially when applied to certain subgenres. It is more accurate to use the Pythagorean system, which divides the octave into 53 commas, although this is still an approximation, and subtle microtonal distinctions exist in practice that depart from any codified system. For elaboration, see A.J. Racy, Making Music in the Arab World: The Culture and Artistry of Ṭarab, particularly pp. 106–117, and references cited there. --Ninly (talk) 03:13, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incorrect! 

message: I agree with people here; this article is wrong and insufficient. Even according to Touma himself, "[t]o temper the scale by dividing the octave into twenty-four quarter-tones of equal size would be to surrender one of the most characteristic elements of this musical culture." If anyone is still watching this page, please provide some sources here in the talk page for re-writing this article to be credible. Otherwise I will attempt to do it myself with the limited resources that are available on the internet. Also, I deleted a sentence from the article because it didn't make any sense and there was no citation given. Eflatmajor7th (talk) 07:22, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

message: In the shortest of pianos, where strings are short and wire stiffness is proportionately high, the stretch required for overall sonority is extreme; concert grand pianos require far less stretch.

message: ...and it is clear that the length of the vibrating string segment is less, and therefore the amplitude of its vibration is less, for higher harmonics than for lower.
Huh?  What does the length of the vibrating segment have to do with amplitude?  Furthermore, his seems to say that higher harmonics always have higher amplitudes than lower harmonics, which I believe is false (if, for example, the string is excited right in its center, the amplitudes of even-order harmonics will be zero). 141.156.242.18 16:57, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I reversed Ducknish's edits. 
No offense intended to Ducknish, but the edits you are making are not productive and explanatory. The purpose of this article and the other debate articles is to give the readers the most relevant, detailed, and explanatory information on the issue of policy debate. These eliminations and edits done in this article are clearly counterproductive. The reader needs to be able to understand the logic behind the stock issues (i.e., logicality) and the other important details that are associated with each issue. Contemporary policy debaters are holding a technical knowledge barrier against outsiders because their activity is very specialized and has constructed its own jargon. I can testify to this as I was a former policy debater. We want to empower the reader and casual observer by breaking down the specialized material into coherent and sensible pieces of information. 
This isn't just our own dialogue that we're perpetuating here. I can go pull some debate cites from debating manuals if you think they are unnecessary.  True Skepticism (talk) 20:18, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
