Each chord contains a ''common note'' shared with the previous chord. The tuning of the common note stays exactly the same, and all other notes of the new chord are tuned in pure [[JI]] ratios relative to the common note. | Each chord contains a ''common note'' shared with the previous chord.

The allowed ratios, and how much they differ from their [[12edo]] tempered version, | === Allowed ratios === | ||
The sheet music for ''Microtonal Composition in "Fluid Just Intonation"'' includes a table of allowed ratios, and how much they differ from their [[12edo]] tempered version (in [[cents]]). | |||
However, the JI ratios and the cent values do not all agree with one another. | |||
So, this page will include two tables, one based on the JI ratios provided in the sheet music, and one based on the cent values. | |||

'''According to the sheet music's stated JI ratios:''' | |||
Fluid just intonation is a subset of [[11-limit]] just intonation. | |||
[[30afdo]] is the smallest [[Overtone scale|mode of the harmonic series]] that can approximate all of fluid just intonation's allowed ratios with a median error of 0 cents and a maximum error less than 20 cents. | |||
[[EDOs]] with progressively better approximations of fluid just intonation's allowed ratios include: {{EDOs|'''19''', 22, 28, '''31''', '''41''', 72, '''87''', '''118'''...}} | |||
