It usually uses a 12-note meantone tuning given by stacking 11 fifths, and modern electronic music standardized this to 12 equally spaced notes per octave. Sometimes non-meantone tunings such as 17edo and superpyth tunings are used, however. | ||
Common instruments used are the harpsichord, the organ and the uniquely Clofabian claviorganum, where a note is played by simultaneously plucking a harpsichord string and blowing through organ pipes. The claviorganum may be slightly detuned for a shimmering vibrato effect. | Common instruments used are the harpsichord, the organ and the uniquely Clofabian claviorganum, where a note is played by simultaneously plucking a harpsichord string and blowing through organ pipes.

==Music of Quelocin== | |||
Quelocian tunings use generally chromatic-sized steps, e.g. 8ed3/2, 13edo, 20ed3, 12edo, 18ed3, 11edo, 6ed3/2. Most Quelocian instruments are fixed pitch (metallophones, rhodes piano, mbiras). Nowadays most Quelocian ensembles use 12edo or 20ed3. | |||
==Ferlitian music== | |||
The earliest forms of Ferlitian music were hymns (''yemetnyare'') and did not use instruments. These were connected with various aspects of Ferlitian animism and shamanism. The amoltin evolved in Ferlitia from gamelan music, brought to Ferlitia by immigrants from Indonesia. | |||
Ferlitia has a very rich tradition of tuning theory which stems from the Rietzic mathematical tradition -- the Ferlitian theorist Altemezwar (Aldamezor) is famous for discovering formulas in Tricin to accurately compute log(2) and other irrational numbers, and applying these to musical scales. Aldamezor proposed a 41 tone division of the octave based on the formula log(2) = 10 log(81/80) + 14 log(64/63) + 12 log(49/48) + 5 log(50/49), which today is known as "the Ferlitian scale" outside of Ferlitia though it was mainly a theoretical construct. He also wrote treatises on amoltin tuning and its connection to concordance and proposed various harmonic profiles when designing amoltins, and addressed the aesthetic differences between equal temperament and just intonation mostly when used for melody, and suggested a very unequal slendric as a tuning for amoltins, approaching 41 tones of 113edo. This had the effect of making neutral thirds in Ferlitian music come in wider and narrower variations, very much like in maqam music. Nowadays most amoltins use 41edo or golden magic temperament, and the latter, which is common in eastern Ferlitia, provides a close approximation to the ''fosbretadorzan'' and ''lisavadorzan'' scales from dorzan practice, sometimes used in Ferlitian music today. | |||
Nowadays synthesized amoltin music is becoming increasingly popular especially outside of Ferlitia. (Example from a Clofabian pop song?) | |||
