Why not tell me some more about your "ratio tuning: if you will Astroid. I am certainly interested in such a synthesis of music based upon a formula, as it reminds me of the composer Arnold Schoenberg, who as you may know, developed a method for composition that involved the idea"Serialism", and a twelve tone technique. His method that he detailed out in many essays, was basically the use of all 12 chromatic tones within an octave (C1 to C2 for example). Each tone was to be used before re-using another tone within the pool of notes. There is more to the concept, but in this is a brief explanation of "twelve tone technique" as I gather.

But don't get yourself all "fruit loops" about this now, for it seems that Schoenberg was not to limit himself as a 'Sole Serialist'......and For me this kind of approach to music comp. is much more progressive than the approach that Bach may have taken. Thank heavens for progressives like Schoenberg, because Bach really doesn't do that much for me anymore. After 7 years of classical music theory study and application, I thirst for more complexity and inovation in harmony, and by remaining open and humbled as a musician and listener, I constantly wet myself.........(not like that) with new revelations about the evolution of music composition. I may only hope that my Evolution is half as unique as Arnold Schoenberg's experience.........but will always strive to maintain his high level of Modesty, with respect to other musicians.
