วีดีโอ

found this vid by complete accident bc I was searching for why I can't tell 1sts and 5ths apart easily; thought "one of my favs personally is 31tet but I wanna get more "in tune" (hurr durr :B) with just intonation!" and! as another music nerd girl version of a pedantic white dude I gotta say I loved the explanation of this all! I was currently aware of a lot of the facts but hearing it concisely explained was satisfying! wonderful job in this vid! sound is the frequency of air pressure, so music is- in a sense- complete magic. frequency is the powerhouse of the universe! (electromagnetism is baffling)

This is the most accessible video addressing equal temperament vs. just tuning that I have seen - thank you for making and sharing this video!

they're both mesured in frequency, which is 1/time 1Hz=1/s 1bpm=1/min

3:27 The exact frequency ratios (7/4 969c and 7/6 267c ) can be heard in the beginning of Ellen Arkbro's For Organ and Brass!) Sounded very familiar

I got interested in synths from ELP first, then all the rock bands including the Beatles, and then finally late bumped into Wendy. That was the pinnacle and still is. This vid left out Vlads contribution of the envelope control. Now that was a marvelous manipulation of a note, Attack, Decay, Sustain, and Release. That is where Wendy shines. Along with the colors and timbre. I could care less what Wendy does to her body her mind is sharp and she is free to live with all of us screwed up people and just fit in no matter where she fits in on the mess of humanity. Everyone is OK in my eyes unless you are a murderer. She is intelligent and a great composer from the discs and vinyl that I was lucky to aquire. And sorry Wendy but I did get more into baroque music after hearing Scarlatti and the rest. Thanks for the painstaking work with the monophonic synth. Impeccable results are appreciated.

visuals are killer on this whole video but the graphics at 3:52 are god tier

I wish my adam'😅s apple was more pronounced.

702nd like! thats a just perfect fifth in cents!

Excellent Video, thank you for taking the time to make it and all the work you put into it. Hope to meet you someday.

you’re telling me that my sick beats are just vocal fry

i like when a girls voice is a boy's voice because the girl is not a girl but is, alas, a boy

Ian Alexander?

Timbre is skibidi toilet

the harmonic series jumpscare got me

This is a lot of info. Thanks. I like the format of this video. Simple, clear, informative and no fluff.

this video broke me down into overlapping chunks, thanks heaps

As a barbershop singer (who goes through a complex interplay between the two systems) the biggest advantage of just intonation is that this is generally (this applies to linear harmonic systems, two dimensional harmonic systems such as church bells have a different series) follow the natural overtones of the instruments. Thus, an instrument never actually plays a single note but the entire overtone series of that note, and if you play a note that isn't exactly the note of the overtone, it will clash. The biggest problem with just intonation is that it only works in that one key (with one root has the base or tonic). The second biggest problem is that if you keep balancing every interval perfectly, the result can be unstable, with the tonic drifting either upwards or downwards. Equal temperament can provide clashes between the natural overtones and the other notes in the chord but the ability to modulate from one key to another is so superior that we can (in our minds) forgive the harmonic clashes of some of the resulting chords. However, it comes at a price. In barbershop harmony, four people sing pitches, often slightly adjusted for just intonation (although they aren't thinking in that way) so that the natural overtones combine to create a fifth voice above the voices, a technique that is called "ringing" the chord. And you can't do that in strict equal temperament.

Just found this channel on Nebula! So excited to discover more!

She was a big influence on Tim Buckley

I bought switched on Bach when I was about 12 it was simply brilliant along with Tomita, I didn't see a clockwork orange as I was far too young at the time but I could instantly here the sound of Carloss when Tron arrived, the makers were Disney so I wouldn't have bothered but the soundtrack was instantly recognisable and just makes the film Wendy is always someone that I would love to meet and say thanks for pushing electronic music 🙂

Do you have any idea what mean to play in tune?! If yes, your video mus begin with that. If not, stop to produce useless things!

IT'S A TRAP

Very interesting video thank you

Very informative video, thank you for sharing :)

Very nice! It would be nice to know you.

Tron soundtrack changed my life musically. I had never heard such ethereal, other worldly, dream like music. A pioneer

Perhaps a wavelet transform works closer to our ear than fft

Very IMPRESSIVE! I learned a lot about physical modelling today.. than I had previously encountered! Great and informative!

Excellent interview. Thank you for sharing this video

I've been binging all of your videos tonight, these are so well made and soothing! Thank you for this backlog Sarah :)

Listen to Tomita .

the amount of women at the origin of electronic music is INSANE <3

Alan Wilder of Depeche Mode is a master of Synth music…

People need to chill…..if you saw these people on the street…you’d have zero clue.

totally garnural - garn47. Born at 47BC and Died at AUGUST 12 2036🔥

His name was Walter Carlos...

If you want to say she was a pioneering TRANS musician, I would whole-heartedly agree. But to call her a pioneering female musician is not truthful, especially when the her biggest contributions were made before her transition. If I win the super bowl, then transition to female, am I now the first female to win the super bowl?

Woman? LOL :D

One of those people I’m just excited about. Makes me happy to be a person like them idk how to describe

Walter Carlos is an important man in music indeed!

That’s no legend, that’s a man baby!

Very useful. Thank you so much!

Sarah, it's certainly your right to try to pass as a woman, but your voice betrays you.

Correction to title. It should read "Transwomen in Electronic Music." Tell it like it is.

Thank you. I have a copy of Femenine that I don't remember listening to. Now I have to explore more.

I love your vids and especially the point you make near the end of the video about authenticity.

I've often described my interest in Modular Synth as the musical equivalent of the transgirl programmer stereotype, without realizing that one of the biggest contributors was trans herself. This makes me very happy, and I feel very seen.

Several is an understatement, more like countless. What an absolute legend, and her cats too!

i like that this was funny and straight to the point. most synth tube video are quite bumbling.

oy thats a sick chromaphone skin
