Advanced Tutorials
Deep dives into powerful features for experienced users.
In This Section
Microtonal Composition
Explore music beyond the standard 12-note scale. Learn to work with alternative equal temperaments (19-TET, 31-TET), just intonation, and the Bohlen-Pierce scale.
SymbolicPower Algebra
Understand how RMT Compose handles irrational numbers like 2^(1/12) with full algebraic precision. Learn why this matters for accurate tuning and how to leverage it.
Complex Dependencies
Master advanced dependency patterns including multi-property dependencies, branching structures, diamond dependencies, and tempo hierarchies.
Prerequisites
Before starting these tutorials, you should be comfortable with:
- Dependencies - Basic note chaining
- Octaves - Frequency manipulation
