What is just intonation?
Just intonation is a method of tuning that ensures pure fifth and third intervals.
If you select just intonation, you'll need to specify the tonic (for a major scale this will be C)
that's appropriate for the key of your song.
The VT-12 will assign the lower of two voices as the tonic.
If a guide tone is sounding, the guide tone will be the tonic.
About pitches in just intonation
The VT-12 can detect just intonation pitches only in a major key.
If the guide tone is C, the pitches are calculated using the following ratios.
