It's easy enough for me to tune course off by accident, I tune one string and then tune the next but only listen to the initial attack and not the beats between them, but
I am just curious if anyone is playing around with intentionally leaving a beat or two between their courses or tuning the same course strings to a different value? How did it go what did you do? How did you choose?
I found that sometimes I like a beat between the coursed strings a very very very slow beat. I don't know why I am listening so hard to the tone between strings but once I started it is getting hard not to. So I started wondering how it could be used. I am starting to think I should learn to ignore it other than when I tune up because I am starting to hear it in music and I don't know if that's a good thing hell it might be all in my imagination. I have mentioned it to a few people before and only one agreed with me, he masters for other people, the rest just thought it was in our heads.
I also wondered what it would be like to tune the instrument up with the courses tuned up to entirely different notes.
