Acolyte Euphonic Array™ Overtone1

Sale price$650.00

The Overtone1 is incredibly unique in that is is tuned outside of equal temperament (the world standard) in “Just intonation”

What is that???
That means instead of playing “notes” the Overtone1 plays scientifically relative harmonics from a given pitch. These overtones are a phenomenon that occur naturally in nature. Starting on frequency 65.406 (around what we know as C2 in equal temperament) the Euphonic Array™ Overtone1 plays corresponding frequencies at a ratio of 1/4 1/5 1/6 1/7 1/8 1/9 1/10 (see diagram in pics)

Please note – because the Overtone1 is tuned in just intonation, it will not play in tune with MOST other instruments you may own or play)

This instrument isn’t about making traditional “music” that you may hear at the orchestra, but it is more a work of sonic Art.  It also just sounds awesome!

Custom colors and tunings are also available for additional fees and wait time. Email us at info@acolyteinst.com for more details.
