D Tuning, also called One Step Lower, Whole Step Down, Full Step or D Standard, is another alternative. Each string is lowered by a whole tone (two semitones) resulting in D-G-C-F-A-D . It is used mostly by heavy metal bands to achieve a heavier, deeper sound, and by blues guitarists, who use it to accommodate string bending and by 12-string ...
Sevendust uses this tuning a half-step down on "Home". Periphery uses this tuning, but tuned 1 step down on "Reptile", The band Architects also use this tuning, but tuned one and a half step down, since their album Lost Forever // Lost Together released in 2014 and Wage War tuned 2 steps down on several songs [57]
In tunings such as 1:1, 9:8, 5:4, 3:2, 7:4, 2:1, all the pitches are chosen from the harmonic series (divided by powers of 2 to reduce them to the same octave), so all the intervals are related to each other by simple numeric ratios. Pythagorean tuning Prelude No. 1, C major, BWV 846, from the Well-Tempered Clavier by Johann Sebastian Bach.
Pythagorean tuning is a system of musical tuning in which the frequency ratios of all intervals are determined by choosing a sequence of fifths [2] which are "pure" or perfect, with ratio :. This is chosen because it is the next harmonic of a vibrating string, after the octave (which is the ratio 2 : 1 {\displaystyle 2:1} ), and hence is the ...
The tuning is E2-A2-D3-G3, which is the same as the lower four strings on a guitar. Some short-scale piccolo basses may be strung with conventional guitar strings. However, in general a piccolo bass will require special string sets to cater for the longer scale length, and larger ball ends to cope with the larger drilled holes in a bass bridge.
Or 15 seconds’ worth of it has, anyway, thanks to the tune taking off and becoming 2021’s unlikeliest TikTok sensation. In most of the viral videos made with the song as soundtrack, users do a ...
Diatonic scale on C, equal tempered Play ⓘ and Ptolemy's intense or just Play ⓘ.. Ptolemy's intense diatonic scale, also known as the Ptolemaic sequence, [1] justly tuned major scale, [2] [3] [4] Ptolemy's tense diatonic scale, or the syntonous (or syntonic) diatonic scale, is a tuning for the diatonic scale proposed by Ptolemy, [5] and corresponding with modern 5-limit just intonation.

For instance, the perfect fifth with ratio 3/2 (equivalent to 3 1 / 2 1) and the perfect fourth with ratio 4/3 (equivalent to 2 2 / 3 1) are Pythagorean intervals. All the intervals between the notes of a scale are Pythagorean if they are tuned using the Pythagorean tuning system. However, some Pythagorean intervals are also used in other ...
