Hello,
This morning I rendered a Mozart piano sonata. I can see from the midi file that this is a live performance captured from a midi keyboard into a computer. (A live performance doesn't always line up on the bar lines and other such "humanizations…

A manipulated ambient-ish piece
Sound sources, 5 string bass, 18" and 14" china cymbal, cornet, mixed tuning, 6 edo, 12 edo, unconstrained pitch.
kudos for anyone who listens to the whole thing.
5 string bass guitar solo.
Here is me and my 5 string bass, which I really, really like playing despite the pain in my pinky to make those stretches I hear in my mind. The name seems stupid - but way better than STE-018cn.
If you can add to…
Home made cannon in Just Intonation, cymbals struck by hand and bowed. (I don't own so many cymbals - I made a field recording while walking through the cymbal room at Sam Ash. A most exciting experience actually!) I did buy two cheap cymbals…

One of my early collaborations with Norm.
Down by the riverside
Where all of the fish had died
I threw my faith right in
When I saw it, it was sinking
Oh don’t you go
Don’t you even dare
Don’t run away until you’ve heard…

i like to walk on a day like…
A composition for 3 piece jazz band, tenor sax, fretless bass, and drums in 14 equal divisions of the octave and 5/4 time. This was realized using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set and Sonar X1.
I'm going to put this in my profile if it will fit.
the question of how microtonality is perceived and why is a hotly debated one on the tuning list. There seems to be, in general, but not in all cases, shared intervals around the world, like the 5th. However non-western cultures use, in general, microtonal tunings. !2 equal notes to an octave is a relatively recent invention in the west. 300 years ago it was common for what would be now called a microtonal tuning to be in common, everyday use. As best as can be determined the push for 12 equal was all about changing keys in a single piece of music. If you take the tuning of the middle ages, Pythagorean, you find you can't play in any key despite having 12 notes because the intervals between the notes are not equally spaced. As a result when you take a pure chord and move it up or down the octave with the same distance between the notes it could become something hideous. 12 Equal solves that problem at the expense of detuning all notes, some more than others.
