Item description from seller

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. MIDI Tuning Standard (MTS) is a specification of precise musical pitch agreed to by the MIDI Manufacturers Association in the MIDI protocol. MTS allows for both a bulk tuning dump message, giving a tuning for each of 128 notes, and a tuning message for individual notes as they are played. If ? is a frequency in hertz, then the corresponding logarithmic frequency value may be computed by d = 69 + 12 \cdot \log_2(f/440).\.Since 440 Hz is a widely-used standard concert A (e.g. USA, UK), and since that is represented in MIDI terms by the integer 69 (nine semitones above middle C, which is 60), this gives a real number which expresses pitch in a manner consistent with MIDI and integer notation. These numerical units do not seem to have a recognized name, though it has been called the dollar in analogy to cents. While "dollars" and cents do not represent the same thing, since the former is a logarithmic measure of frequency and the latter a logarithmic measure of frequency ratios, a difference of one dollar equals one hundred cents. Given this "dollar" value, converting back to frequency is computed by f = 440 \cdot 2^{(d-69)/12}. so that the two notations are equivalent. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 161.…
