Implement Linear Chord generator #462

Open frostburn opened 1 year ago

Implement a new modal dialog for generating equally beating chords/scales. See: https://en.xen.wiki/w/Linear_chord

@000masa000 are these the kinds of chords you wanted to make?

000masa000 commented 1 year ago

This is definitely related, in the sense that I was looking at the chord 2:3:5:7:9:11:13 (possibly other odds / primes might be included) and seeing what kind of "Meantone" aka Rank-2 with 3/2-:-m\n would produce this chord in a manner that the differences would be related linearly (by whole numbers), mainly powers of 2 or 3, since higher order polyrhythmic beatings start to sound too indiscernible, though this could definitely be an interesting extension of the logic.

3/2-:-m\n"<"comma">"

000masa000 commented 1 year ago

is there a better way to type it here?

000masa000 commented 1 year ago

3/2-:-m\n<comma>

OK got it, as code.
