A musically theoretical model.
The paper submits a musically theoretical model of relations among the tones in the harmonic music stream.
Energy bands (zones) are associated with the tones of a regular musical system. The bands influence each another, the bindings exhausting energy from the bands....

LA PETITE ENCYCLOPÉDIE DES ÉCHELLES ET DES MODES:
Les 350 échelles
LA PETITE ENCYCLOPÉDIE DES ÉCHELLES ET DES MODES" aurait pu éventuellement recenser l'échelle à 1 degré ( 1 seul mode ).
La raison pour laquelle cette échelle n'a pas été comptabilisée, c'est qu'elle est commune à absolument tous les systèmes ( intonations justes, tempéraments, divisions égales de n'importe quels intervalles en n'importe quels nombres, générateurs de n'importe quelles grandeurs ) : elle a donc une place bien à part, "hors concours"!
Ici, "échelle" aurait eu la même signification que "mode"!
Par rapport au système à 12 demi-tons il y a en théorie 12 "gammes" ( si on peut encore appeler "gamme" une seule et unique note! ) mais dans la pratique les BOLS TIBETAINS ( ou JAPONAIS ou CHINOIS ) sont accordés sur des fréquences infiniment variables ...
En BOHLEN-PIERCE ( 13 notes dans la 12ème harmonique ) il y en a 630
En ARMODUE ( 16 ekas par décime ) il y en a 4 115
Dans les systèmes à 12 notes ( sans tenir compte de la microtonalité ), il existe:
6 échelles à 2 degrés
19 échelles à 3 degrés
43 échelles à 4 degrés
66 échelles à 5 degrés
80 échelles à 6 degrés
66 échelles à 7 degrés
43 échelles à 8 degrés
19 échelles à 9 degrés
6 échelles à 10 degrés
1 échelle à 11 degrés
1 échelle à 12 degrés,
On ne peut pas entendre une échelle, car dès que vous cliquez sur une note,
vous entendez les autres notes à partir de celle que vous avez choisie.
Ce que vous entendez s'appelle un MODE (représenté en notes) et non plus une échelle.
Vous constaterez en cliquant sur les degrés, que chacun d'entre eux produit une petite
mélodie différente de celle produite par les autres degrés ...
The 8-Tone Quarto-Modes Concept is a special study into the diminished and its application for mainstream jazz players, advanced improvisators, and notational composers. Ten years in development, and written by an internationally acclaimed musician for musicians already familiar with standard scaletone harmony, it is a new paradigm for further possibilities in jazz and improvisational music.

Sagittal:
The word "sagittal" (pronounced "SAJ-i-tl") means "arrow-like". Think of Sagittarius the archer; the centaur with bow and arrow that the ancients saw in the night sky.
The Sagittal notation system is a comprehensive system for notating musical pitch in all possible scales and tunings - a universal set of microtonal accidentals, equally suited to extended just intonation, equal divisions of the octave (or of any other interval), or any of the non-just non-equal "middle path" tunings or temperaments. It is called Sagittal because, you guessed it, it uses various arrow-like symbols, pointing up or down to indicate raising or lowering of pitch.
Sagittal was developed by George Secor and myself, with a major early contribution from Gene Ward Smith, and in cooperation with many others on the Yahoo Groups tuning and tuning-math. ... Or at least that's how it seemed to me at the time.
We would like to thank the following for their suggestions and/or encouragement during the development of the Sagittal notation system so far, (in alphabetical order): Gabor Bernath, Graham Breed, Paul Erlich, Mark Gould, Kraig Grady, Aaron Hunt, Marc Jones, Carl Lumma, Herman Miller, Alison Monteith, Joe Monzo, Ted Mook, Manuel Op de Coul, Joseph Pehrson, Johnny Reinhard, Joel Rodrigues, Klaus Schmirler, Margo Schulter, Samara Secor, Gene Ward Smith, Dan Stearns, Jon Szanto, Robert Walker, Robert Wendell and Danny Wier ...
When you pluck a note on a guitar string, there isn't very much that can go wrong. You may not play the right note at the right time, of course, but a single note will always come out at the expected pitch, and sounding reasonably musical. When a beginner tries to play a violin, things are much more difficult. When a bow is drawn across a string, the result might be a musical note at the desired pitch, but on the other hand it might be an undesirable whistle, screech or graunch. This difference stems from a fundamental distinction between the physics of plucked and bowed strings ...
