Purpose is buried in stone.

i will be hosting a series of music battles called THE EDO CHRONICLES in which you must use a tuning corresponding to the instalment number. so, THE EDO CHRONICLES - I will be in 1edo, THE EDO CHRONICLES - II must be in 2edo, etc.

i also plan on having OVAs/side battles, featuring non-edo tunings. i will do this at my (or your) whims.

i will be hosting a battle every tuesday at 7PM GMT. i will be providing a "scale workshop" link from which you can export the scale in the comments of the battle before it starts as well as in this thread. i will also post .scl and .tun files in the "#qr's-qryptoqron" channel in the SINECRAFT discord server, if you're in that.

i will make most battles between 1 and 2 hours, but some tunings might get more time.

if you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know!



"FAQ":

Q: what is an "xenharmonic edo"
A: EDO stands for "equal divisions of the octave". an "[n]-edo" is how many notes the octave is divided into. the common chromatic scale of 12 notes is "12-edo", and splitting into different numbers can lead to cool and new sounds. these can also be hard to work with if you're not used to them, but that's ok, i'm literally hosting a series and i used this shit like 6 times.
If you're interested but don't know how to use this, I will be happy to try to help you if you message me on discord (qrqrqr0515#9402), or through whatever means are comfortable for you.

Q: this is ridiculous!! who would want to make a song in 1edo!! at SOME point the tuning will be too much!!

i hope i see you there!!

i hope you can find enough people who know how to do this to join :v at the moment, you'll wanna search around in other communities

imagine being able to import tunings into musescore... *crying

hope this turns out well, it sounds fun!!!

i wanna participate but i have no idea how to change EDO

Advertising 1edo does not seem easy lol; it may be wise to do this a couple battles down the road. I'll have to think about this

(Btw; I talked to mmmbop and will talk to you as well if you need help)

I wanna join this. I think I can do this with scala and diva. Very excited to give this a try and come up with my first few EDO bits and pieces.

Excited to hear what you come up with!

i love this idea and i'm excited to see its new battles take form :3
