==Instruments== | |||
Some instruments used in Clofabian music include the ''spiusin''/''spüśın'', a kind of harp or lyre with sympathetic strings; ''penicillin'', a [[w:psalmodicon|psalmodicon]]-like instrument (which is, incidentally, called ''moldpill'' in Estonian); ''ditoren'', the crychord; and the ''sevoren'' (borrowed from [[Eevo]] ''sewvore'') (an isomorphic keyboard). | Some instruments used in Clofabian music include the ''spiusin''/''spüśın'', a kind of harp or lyre with sympathetic strings; ''penicillin'', a [[w:psalmodicon|psalmodicon]]-like instrument (which is, incidentally, called ''moldpill'' in Estonian); ''ditoren'', the crychord; and the ''sevoren'' (borrowed from [[Eevo]] ''sewvore'') (an isomorphic keyboard). | ||
==Tunings== | |||
Clofabian tunings depend on the instrument. However, "Diaphonic cycles" (scales based on JI ratios with a common numerator) and "Helixsong cycles" (scales based on JI ratios with a common denominator) [Erv Wilson] are common tunings, as well as the Ptolemy's intense diatonic scale. Meantone is also commonly used. | Clofabian tunings depend on the instrument.

*'''Baroque chiptune''' is what it says on the tin: chiptune that sounds Baroque-ish, or harpsichords or organs playing music that would be perceived as more retro video game-like by Terrans. Chiptune adapted by Clofabian popular musicians. | *'''Baroque chiptune''' is what it says on the tin: chiptune that sounds Baroque-ish, or harpsichords or organs playing music that would be perceived as more retro video game-like by Terrans.
