The exploitation of intervals which lie between the semitone steps of the equal tempered scale. This allows the use of tunings and modes which are more typical of non-western music. This important and underestimated facility is at last becoming available on Buy It! synthesisers.

Studio Jargon
Consonance Dissonance
An aesthetic judgment of the relative attractiveness of combinations of notes sounded together. Consonance relates to a more pleasant experience for the listener while dissonance relates to a less pleasant experience. The judgment of whether any given interval falls into one category or the other has been arbitrarily applied throughout history, with a general tendency for the progressing acceptance of smaller intervals. The terms are also used in a stricter sense in theories of tonal harmony.
