Ma ke kumumanaʻo mele, ʻo ka wā kaawale ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā pitch ʻelua. Hiki ke ho'ākāka 'ia ka wā lō'ihi ma ke 'ano he paepae, laina, a melodic paha inā pili ia i nā leo kani ho'okahi, e like me 'elua mau leo e pili ana i ke mele, a me ke kūpale a i 'ole ka harmonic inā pili ia i nā leo kani ho'okahi, e like me ka chord.
Ma nā mele komohana, ʻokoʻa ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā memo o kahi diatonic Pāku'i. ʻO ka liʻiliʻi loa o kēia mau kikowaena he semitone.
Ua kapa ʻia nā kikowaena liʻiliʻi ma mua o ka semitone he microtones. Hiki ke hana ʻia me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā memo o nā ʻano unahi non-diatonic.
Ua kapa ʻia kekahi o nā mea liʻiliʻi loa i nā koma, a wehewehe i nā ʻokoʻa liʻiliʻi, i ʻike ʻia i loko o kekahi mau ʻōnaehana hoʻokani, ma waena o nā memo like ʻole e like me C a me D.
Hiki ke liʻiliʻi nā intervals, a hiki ʻole ke ʻike ʻia i ka pepeiao o ke kanaka. Ma nā huaʻōlelo kino, ʻo ka wā waena ka ratio ma waena o ʻelua mau alapine sonic.
No ka laʻana, ʻelua memo a octave Loaʻa i kahi kaʻawale ka ratio alapine o 2: 1.
ʻO ia hoʻi, ʻo ka piʻi ʻana o ka pitch e like me ka hopena o ka piʻi ʻana o ke alapine, ʻoiai ke ʻike nei ka pepeiao o ke kanaka he piʻi laina laina.
No kēia kumu, ua ana pinepine ʻia nā kikowaena i nā keneta, kahi ʻāpana i loaʻa mai ka logarithm o ka ratio frequency.
Ma ke kumumanaʻo mele Western, ʻo ka papa inoa maʻamau no nā wā āpau e wehewehe i ʻelua mau waiwai o ka wā: ʻo ka maikaʻi (kūpono, nui, liʻiliʻi, hoʻonui, hoʻemi) a me ka helu (unison, lua, kolu, etc.).
Aia nā laʻana i ka hapakolu liʻiliʻi a i ʻole ka hapalima maikaʻi loa. Hōʻike kēia mau inoa ʻaʻole wale i ka ʻokoʻa o nā semitones ma waena o nā memo o luna a me lalo, akā pehea hoʻi i ka ʻōlelo ʻia ʻana o ka wā.
ʻO ke koʻikoʻi o ka spelling mai ka hana mōʻaukala o ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i nā ratio alapine o nā wā enharmonic e like me GG a me GA.
ʻO wau ʻo Joost Nusselder, ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu iā Neaera a me kahi mea kūʻai aku ʻike, makuakāne, a makemake hoʻi e hoʻāʻo i nā mea hana hou me ka guitar ma ka puʻuwai o koʻu makemake, a me kaʻu hui, ua hana wau i nā ʻatikala blog hohonu mai 2020 e kōkua i ka poʻe heluhelu kūpaʻa me nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo hoʻopaʻa leo a me nā kīkā.
