3/5/7-all

5ths, 3rds, and also 7ths are changed in this mode. It is great for Pop and Jazz styles,

especially when using held chords. It is less suitable for polyphonic music, as the de-

tuning of the natural 7th is quite high. This mode should always be used with a

Hermode Tuning Depth of 90% or 100%, as other values will render the natural 7th

acoustically ineffective.

3/5-adaptive

This mode tunes pure 5ths and 3rds—with changing characteristics. In tonal music,

with a clear harmonic center, the center chords are tuned very purely, whereas more

distant chords are tuned less purely. If the harmonic center becomes unclear/

unfocussed, all chords are tuned with equal purity. As with the other mode parameters,

a Hermode Tuning Depth value of 100% determines the highest purity, and a value of

10%, the lowest purity. Off sets everything to equal tempered tuning.

Depth

The clarity and presence derived from scaled tuning isn’t everything. Compatibility with

normal (equal) tempered tuning is every bit as important—with the key concept being

that the changes need to be nearly inaudible.

As all tuning requirements cannot be satisfied simultaneously with any one Hermode

Tuning setting, different modes can be selected. Furthermore, degrees of effect

between 0% and 100% can be selected.

As a good rule of thumb, when playing with other tempered instruments, a Depth of

around 70% sounds quite pleasing to the ear.
