I think it differentiate between things like Bb and A# which do have an actual difference but on instruments are the same note due to them being similar enough in frequency
@spicyboy_178 ай бұрын
@@unicornbro517they both refer to the same frequency in equal temperament, it's just the instrument is tuned to a different temperament Edit - wanted to add that Bb and A# are indeed different with right context. Bb functioning as the tonic in Bb major is not the same frequency as A# that is major 7th in B (natural) major (-12 cents according to google, do log math to get frequency) But notice how the conversation is still around the temperament, in this case just intonation. Would highly recommend doing some reading and asking your music teacher to clear up this misconception.

There's 31 keys per octave, so I'm guessing this is tuned to 31 equal temperament. The bottom row should sound pretty close to what the white keys on a piano would sound, and there's either 2 or 4 intermediate notes in between. It gives way better thirds and slightly worse fourth and fifth than 12-ET (the standard tuning).
