  2. Enharmonic equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enharmonic_equivalence

    A musical passage notated as flats. The same passage notated as sharps, requiring fewer canceling natural signs. Sets of notes that involve pitch relationships — scales, key signatures, or intervals, [1] for example — can also be referred to as enharmonic (e.g., the keys of C ♯ major and D ♭ major contain identical pitches and are therefore enharmonic).

  3. Chord notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_notation

    D/F ♯ is a D chord with F ♯ in the bass, and; A/C ♯ is an A chord with C ♯ in the bass. Slash chords generally do not indicate a simple inversion (which is usually left to the chord player's discretion anyway), especially considering that the specified bass note may not be part of the chord to play on top.

  4. E (musical note) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_(musical_note)

    F ♭ is a common enharmonic equivalent of E, but is not regarded as the same note. F ♭ is commonly found after E ♭ in the same measure in pieces where E ♭ is in the key signature , in order to represent a diatonic , rather than a chromatic semitone; writing an E ♭ with a following E ♮ is regarded as a chromatic alteration of one ...

  5. Equivalence class (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_class_(music)

    For example, the C major scale, G major scale, and the major scale in all keys, are not identical but share transpositional equivalence in that the size of the intervals between scale steps is identical while pitches are not (C major has F ♮ while G major has F ♯). The major third and the minor sixth are not identical but share inversional ...

  6. List of Casio keyboards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Casio_keyboards

    Casio keyboards from the 1980s and 1990s are occasionally used by ambitious sound designers who use circuit bending, a process in which a person rewires the circuitry in innovative ways in an attempt to increase functionality, to extend the keyboard's sound palettes. The following list includes some of the instruments' basic specifications and ...

  7. Enharmonic keyboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enharmonic_keyboard

    An enharmonic keyboard is a musical keyboard, where enharmonically equivalent notes do not have identical pitches. A conventional keyboard has, for instance, only one key and pitch for C ♯ and D ♭ , but an enharmonic keyboard would have two different keys and pitches for these notes.

  8. Altered scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altered_scale

    The altered scale is made by the sequence: Half, Whole, Half, Whole, Whole, Whole, Whole. The abbreviation "alt" (for "altered") used in chord symbols enhances readability by reducing the number of characters otherwise needed to define the chord and avoids the confusion of multiple equivalent complex names.

  9. Enharmonic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enharmonic_scale

    The only difficulty is retuning the strings (on an acoustic piano or harpsichord) or convincing an electronic sound module (for a modern electronic keyboard) to produce the bizarre pitches required for enharmonic scale D, E, A, and B notes; the fixed notes (C, F, G, and C′) may also need comparatively slight adjustments, but in enharmonic ...
