13. Dan Schmidt Pelog/Slendro
Created for the Berkeley Gamelan group, this tuning fits an Indonesian-
style heptatonic Pelog on the white keys and pentatonic Slendro on the
black keys, with B and Bb acting as 1/1 for their respective modes. Note
that some of the notes will have the same frequency. By tuning the 1/1 to
60 Hz, Dan found a creative way to incorporate the inevitable line hum
into his scale. Bb, B = 1/1 (60 Hz) 1/1 1/1 9/8 7/6 5/4 4/3 11/8 3/2 3/2

14. Yamaha Just Major C
When Yamaha decided to put preset microtunings into their FM synth
product line, they selected this and the following tuning as representative
just intonations. As such, they became the de-facto introduction to JI for
many people. Just Major gives preferential treatment to major thirds on
the sharps, and a good fourth relative to the second. C= 1/1 (261.625) 1/1

treatment to minor thirds on the sharps, and has a good fifth relative to
the second. C= 1/1 (261.625) 1/1 25/24 10/9 6/5 5/4 4/3 45/32 3/2 8/5
