Standard tuning
Josiah Evans
Brayden Anderson
Standard was a mistake
I personally believe tuning as a concept should be more dynamic
Nicholas King
periodicity is underrated
but then so is jazz
Josiah Hughes
>new standard tuning
Anthony Campbell
Just listen to Sonic Youth then
Gavin Price
periodicity tuning?
Thomas Wilson
seriously idk what that is
Jacob Cox
>can't play well
>change tuning
wow such genius much craft
Asher Price
just intonation has periodicity, 12-TET does not
but without 12-TET you wouldn't have jazz, so
Isaac Myers
lmao this so much
i know people like this, so pretentious
Jaxson Cook
>change tuning
>string breaks
Jaxon Ward
Dude I'm a brainlet, I don't know what any of that means. Could you explain?
John Flores
There is a lot of non-western music that does not have standard tuning. Wanna know why nobody listens to it? :^)
Logan Hall
in just intonation all the little waveforms line up all nice and neat
people like the sound of that, it's what set pythagoras off on his mathematical purity mission, he thought the relationships were heavenly
you can easy make a 5 note or 7 note scale this way but as you try to add notes it gets harder (because maths)
but people wanted to squeeze more notes in (european egocentrism), and eventually someone worked out you could have 12 notes if you changed all the pitches slightly, but that ruined all the nice neat waveforms lining up
but hey, more notes, so now we have 12 notes per octave, all equally spaced, but none of them align with each other properly, they are all slightly 'out of tune' with each other (or at least pythagoras would say so)
(that's a highly inaccurate condensed version, it actually went thru many revisions over the years)

this is a good vid on the subject, he explains it better than i just tried to

My favorite SY song (Disappearer) uses standard tuning, ironically enough.
Wyatt Thomas
and a longer one if you feel inclined to continue

>just intonation has periodicity
No one ever says that
Gabriel Young
>Wanna know why nobody listens to it? :^)
because they're not smart enough to appreciate something that sounds unfamiliar
Aiden Flores
must be particular to my school
Colton Davis
Ian Lewis
okay but that doesn't refer to just intonation having perfect intervals with no beating. it's describing a lattice, not the quality of the intervals
Dylan Howard
Meh, the pitches you are using aren't all that important... go listen to Louis Armstrong's one note solo on West End Blues.
If you've got the rhythm, dynamics, tone, all that there, what pitches you're using become secondary
Grayson Morris
just providing examples of the term being used in a musical context
it's not an unusual term, and it's used by at least two of my professors
David Rivera
christ you are autistic as fuck
yes, "periodicity" is a word, I'm well aware of that
Ian Garcia
assuming you know what it means, i see no reason to continue this conversation
Easton Baker
intervals are important
Alexander Robinson
theres nothing wrong with standard tuning or any other tuning. standard is what everyone is taught with unless you're learning the blues back in 1925
the only thing wrong is people adhering to a certain ~sound~ or ~vibe~ and not just playing what sounds good
good rock music can still be made in standard tuning
youtube.com
some of the best rock music has been made in standard tuning
youtube.com
the problem is not with standard tuning, its with rock musicians doing the same tired thing
Elijah Price
>440hz conspiracy
James Wilson
no one in this thread mentioned anything about that, it's a confused discussion of guitar tunings and temperaments
Jayden Cruz
i agree 100% op. standard is bland as fuck, on guitar at least
Angel Ramirez
it's true
Anthony Hughes
*ahem*
Aiden Hernandez
no it's not
