A '''minor-major seventh chord''' is a [[tetrad]] comprising a root, [[minor]] third, [[perfect]] fifth, and [[major]] seventh.


== JI Tunings ==
== In temperaments ==
The minor-major seventh chord is a [[15-odd-limit]] [[essentially tempered chord]] in [[marvel]] and thus in [[septimal meantone]], for which the historically prevalent [[quarter-comma meantone]] is a good tuning, with the augmented fifth between the third and the seventh being [[75/48]], [[tempering together|tempered together]] with [[14/9]].


* (Marvel) 1–6/5–3/2–15/8
== In just intonation ==
In the [[5-limit]]:
In the [[5-limit]]:
* [[40:48:60:75]] is found on the I ([[1/1]]), IV ([[4/3]]), and V ([[3/2]]) of the [[duodene]].
* [[40:48:60:75]] is found on the I ({{Frac|1|1}}), IV ({{Frac|4|3}}), and V ({{Frac|3|2}}) of the [[duodene]].
 
In the [[3-limit]]:
* [[3456:4096:5184:6561]] spans eight octave-reduced fifths, and may be considered a 3-limit approximation of 40:48:60:75.
