The 16-FS (MaxMSP)

If you ever heard that western music borrows its twelve notes from the harmonic series, then you should know that’s barely true. The harmonic series are the genesis of Pythagorean music up until the ‘perfect fourth’, whose ratio is completely fabricated.


This synthesiser for Ableton Live strictly plays within a system of harmonic series, containing 16 notes.


This video demonstrates how to play a classic chord progression in it.
