Richter tuning is a system of choosing the reeds for a diatonic wind instrument (such as a harmonica or accordion).It is named after Joseph Richter, a Bohemian instrument maker who adopted the tuning for his harmonicas in the early 19th century and is credited with inventing the blow/draw mechanism that allows the harmonica to play different notes when the air is drawn instead of blown.
These common diatonic harmonicas using the Richter construction are usually made with "German Standard" tuning, which provides a major triad for the key of the harmonica when any three 3 adjacent holes are blown together, and a major triad one fifth above the key of harmonica when 3 of the first 4 draw notes are played together.
Solo tuning is a system of choosing the reeds for a diatonic wind instrument (such as a harmonica or accordion) to fit a pattern where blow notes repeat a sequence of C E G C (perhaps shifted to begin with E or with G) and draw notes follow a repeating sequence of D F A B (perhaps correspondingly shifted).
