Study and design of an electronic musical instrument which accurately produces the spaces of the Byzantine music

摘要

This paper presents the study and the construction of an Electronic Musical instrument which is used in the integrated study and performance of both European and Oriental civilizations' music (Byzantine, Arabic etc). The principal idea of its realization is the thinner partition of the well-known European scale and therefore the development of new notes. The instrument in question is realized with the use of complicated electronic circuits. The paper provides a complete design and brief analysis of this electronic instrument.
