			== Mess of infoboxes ==

			This page looks terrible because it's just a bunch of stacked infoboxes. Please try to actually write some prose instead of dumping auto-generated info.

			Secondly, the some of these 'interpretations' are very dubious. Last time I checked, Hendrix was just playing in 12edo.

Bcmills: question whether the chord is really “essentially tempered”

question whether the chord is really “essentially tempered”

			== Essentially tempered? ==

			After some discussion on the XA Discord, we're not sure why the 19-limit chord would be considered “essentially tempered”: the 7-limit interpretation looks essentially just, and the 19-limit interpretation also uses prime 7, so if the Hendrix comma is tempered out (equating the two) then the chord seems to be essentially just — not essentially tempered — by virtue of its 7-limit mapping.

			[[User:FloraC\|FloraC]] thinks the original author may have been thinking about [[Dyadic_chord#List_of_essentially_just_dyadic_chords\|plurichords]] instead.

			== Voicings ==

			The “Hendrix chord” as it is usually discussed by rock musicians is not just an octave-equivalent set of intervals, but rather a specific voicing of the chord. For a musician like Hendrix playing with high gain and distortion, the specific voicing matters a lot in how we hear the chord. I'm going to try to fix the page to talk about the Hendrix chord per se rather than a generically voiced dom7#9no5.

			Moreover, since many guitarists describe chords in terms of meantone, I think it's useful to present a 5-limit voicing in addition to the current 19- and 7-limit ones, and to present the different tunings more neutrally (rather than to describe the 7-limit as merely “an alternate”).

			== Color notation ==

			I think the use of color notation in this article is doing more to distract here than it is to clarify, and I don't want to figure out the color notation for the 5-limit chord (see above), so I'm going to remove that part to focus the page on the chord itself rather than its notation in an esoteric system.

Bozu: /* Chord spelling */ new section

			== Chord spelling ==

			Thanks for posting this. I've been interested in how to translate this chord into different tuning since I first started experimenting with tuning.

			To my ears, the literal spelling of E7#9 sounds really off in 19-edo, with the #9 sounding irritatingly flat. E7x9 (or E7addm10) sounds much more Hendrix-y to my ears, but, it's not like there is an accepted interpretation by music scholars. Playing around with the chord in JI systems, I noticed also that the dom7aug9 spelling yields a weird vibe that doesn't strike me well.

			What are you interpretations? --[[User:Bozu\|Bozu]] ([[User talk:Bozu\|talk]]) 12:46, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
