	Lucy tuning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		LucyTuning is a form of meantone temperament, derived from pi, in which the fifth is of size 600+300/π (= approximately 695.5) cents.
		The LucyTuned perfect fifth is 0.0384 cents sharper than the fifth of 88 tone equal temperament, and a mere 0.01015 cents flatter than 3/10-comma meantone, and therefore is audibly indistinguishable from either as the just noticeable difference for pitch is five cents for single pitches.
		Using LucyTuning is seems that simultaneously heard notes which are closer on the spiral of fourths and fifths sound more consonant than those which are separated by more steps along the spiral.

	LucyTuning, meantone, equal temperament
		This is a brief comparison among three varieties of meantone temperament: "LucyTuning," 1/4 syntonic comma meantone, and 12-note equal temperament.
		In LucyTuning, developed by Charles Lucy, the fifth is even narrower, to generate a large interval defined as 2^(1/(2*pi)), or about 190.99 cents, leaving a small interval of about 122.53 cents.
		LucyTuning (major and minor thirds all narrow) gives an effect between those of 1/4 syntonic comma meantone (major thirds pure, minor thirds narrow) and 1/3 syntonic comma meantone (minor thirds pure, major thirds narrow).

	LucyTuning and 88-tone equal-temperament
		LucyTuning is a tuning invented by John 'Longitude' Harrison in the 1700s and rediscovered and promoted currently by Charles Lucy.
		LucyTuning has a "5th" or generator at the "low end" of the meantone spectrum, with an interval size between that of 1/3-comma meantone and Zarlino's 2/7-comma meantone (see the right side of the graph at the bottom of the meantone entry).
		Below is a table and graph showing a 25-tone LucyTuning chain of 5ths, with all the intervals normally found in common-practice harmony labeled.

		The forty nine different LucyTunings in the downloadable archives above (which all have the extension.ana.tun) can be placed anywhere that you can remember on your hard drive, so that you can load them from Cameleon, when required.
		It is possible to LucyTune your sequences to the nearest 64th of a semitone using MIDI pitchbend.
		Therefore to LucyTune your sequence you may have to move notes to other channels, so that there is only ever one note per channel at any time.

		LucyTuning is a musical microtuning system derived from Pi and the writings of John "Longitude" Harrison.
		Beyond the scales, tunings and modes of Western music (Lydian, Ionian, Mixolydian, Dorian, Aeolian, Phrygian, or Locrian....), with LucyTuning, it is possible to emulate Japanese, Indonesian, Chinese, Indian, Arabic (makam) and any conceivable tuning system.
		LucyTuned Lullabies (from around the world) demonstrate how the music sounds by using instrumental renditions of traditional melodies, and generates low frequency beating which encourages relaxation and sleep in babies and other humans of all ages.

		A.Yes, LucyTuning technology can be used to code any scale or tuning system, and to play any scale that you can imagine.
		A.As using LucyTuning harmoniously generates low frequency beating in the Alpha and sub Alpha ranges, hypnotic and trance states have been observed and reported by users.
		LucyTuning can map any combination and permutation of Large and small intervals that you can imagine for all Western scales and all known "ethnic" scales, plus an infinity of new possibilities.

	Tuning-Math Archive Section 4: 3600 - 3624
		But when some meantones, like LucyTuning, will require irrational exponents anyway in order to get a "spiral" happening for them, that implies to me that irrational exponents are just as meaningful as rational ones.
		I'm stating that LucyTuning is not the same as 3/10-comma meantone.
		So if your point is that LucyTuning and 3/10-comma meantone are "functionally identical", then I can simply lattice LucyTuning as 3/10-comma meantone and call it a day.

		The mapping/navigation system conforms to traditional musical harmonic and note naming conventions and concepts.
		The first practical LucyTuned guitar was the Mk V, which was first made in 1986.
		The story of its design and construction can be found in chapter one of Pitch, Pi, and Other Musical Paradoxes.

		I says that while LucyTuning and meantone-like ETs are audibly indistinguishable from certain fraction-of-a-comma meantones, they are mathematically entirely different.
		I just realized I had explained this on an updated definition I made for "LucyTuning", but I never uploaded it until now!) It's all in the Dictionary now at Definitions of tuning terms: LucyTuning, (c) 2...
		That last number is the "ratio" of the tiny xenharmonic bridge I'm talking about.

		Even if you are yet to be familiar with LucyTuning, I suggest that you download them, and discover how they change the tonality of your samples.
		Just trash the other.exs files for which your system fails to find the necessary samples.
		To encourage more musicians to LucyTune their music, and explore the potential for their own productions.
