these are some issues that may have no bearing on anything but i thought i'd throw it into the mix. Technically (and well, practically speaking as well) in Turkish theory there doesn't exist a semitone that is divided by 100 cents. (the practical aspect often comes in the way that, if you have a scalar passage going up your pitch may be higher than when you are coming down. but that's pretty overgeneralized) a turkish koma (subdivision of a whole step into exactly 9 parts) is 22.7 cents so it's in the middle there's this business of having a difference between the pitches Db and C#: C to D-flat is a cycle of 5 P4; if you do the math this interval is 90.2 cents 90.2 / 22.6 ~ 4 koma C to C# is a cycle of 7 P5; this interval is 114.7 cents 114.7 / 22.6 ~ 5 koma On Oct 3, 2005, at 5:47 AM, Han-Wen Nienhuys wrote:
