Temperament

Post by Annika »

Hi, I'm a new user and member of this forum.

I'm wondering if there is a setting hidden somewhere to choose between equal temperament and just intonation? I've been trying out mainly the sight singing module of the program. Am I right that it is by default using equal temperament when grading or playing the answers? Being an amateur wind player and singer, I would find just temperament a lot more useful for me, though there are certainly also instances where equal temperament is more useful e.g. when singing or playing together with a piano, so it would be useful to be able to practice both.

(I don't think of myself as particularly musical, so I'm far from sure that I'm hearing the temperament correctly. Not feeling entirely certain makes it seem maybe even more important not to practice and "tune my ear" by the "wrong" intonation.)
