Abstract
Any musical interval may be treated as a vector quantity based upon arbitrarily selected unit vector intervals. A matrix technique is developed whereby entire tuning systems may be derived and described in vector terms. This approach is compared to and contrasted with conventional numerical techniques which involve the fractional and logarithmic manipulation of musical intervals.
