historical tunings on the modern concert grand
Description
Beethoven in the temperaments-historical tunings on the modern concert grand.
"Temperament" is both the process and result of making slight changes to the pitches of a pure musical scale, so that the octave may be conveniently divided into a usable number of notes and intervals. In the history of Western music's 12-note octave tradition, there have been several, fundamentally different forms of temperament applied to the developing keyboard. Music suffers when performed in a tuning that is different than that which the composer used in its creation...

It is often said that the most important aspects of musical performance are the "three ts": tuning, timing and tone. A well-played piece of music needs to be in tune, in time and have an appropriate tonal quality. In this section of my site I will be focusing on the first t - tuning....

The technology of speech processing, which includes speech modeling, synthesis, encoding, and recognition, dates back to the parametric techniques introduced by Homer Dudley in the late 1930's and early 1940's. These methods are "parametric" in the sense that they construct a model of the acoustic properties of the human vocal tract, and then analyze speech by determining the values of the parameters of the model....

This Test Tone Generator (TTG) turns your PC into a function generator and enables you to demonstrate, test and tune sound systems, create sound effects and a whole range of other uses to suit your needs. It can also be used for educational purposes.
It's unique frequency slider allows you to produce test signals and change them in real time - just like an analog function generator.
Signals created can be saved as a .WAV file in order to make a test tone CD....
