'''6:7:8:9''' is a subminor add-4 chord in the [[7-limit]] and the [[9-odd-limit]]. In other words, it has a shape similar to a minor add-4 chord, but with a [[subminor]] third instead of a minor third.
It can be constructed by stacking the intervals [[7/6]], [[8/7]] and [[9/8]] in that order, making it a stack of three consecutive [[superparticular]] intervals.
It is a subset of [[5afdo]]. It is very approximated very well by [[36edo]], making it one of the most important consonant [[tetrad]]s in 36edo harmony.

6:7:8:9 is a subminor add-4 chord in the 7-limit and the 9-odd-limit. In other words, it has a shape similar to a minor add-4 chord, but with a subminor third instead of a minor third.

It can be constructed by stacking the intervals 7/6, 8/7 and 9/8 in that order, making it a stack of three consecutive superparticular intervals.

It is a subset of 5afdo. It is very approximated very well by 36edo, making it one of the most important consonant tetrads in 36edo harmony.
