SYNTHESIZING SOUND FOR SETTING FUNCTION TUNING (USED IN ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTS FOLLOW THAI TRADITIONAL MUSICAL SCALE)

Abstract

This thesis is about researching and developing. Studying the structure of 7 equidistant tone musical system use by Thai traditional musical bands and how to setup tuning functions in electronic musical instruments. Using electric musical instruments in a Thai traditional musical band for performance is the objective. The results of this study are as follows:

1. The format of Thai 7 equidistant tone musical system that is divided by equal 7 intervals in an octave. It uses 5 tones to create the Thai musical scale. It can modulate to another scale in the Thai 7 equidistant tone musical system when being performed.


2. Setup the frequency of the notes by using the Micro tuning function in electronic instruments, such as keyboards or synthesizers, to tune the frequency of notes when performing with Thai traditional instruments.
