In 19-limit [[just intonation]], all ratios in the system will contain no primes higher than 19.
{{Prime limit navigation|19}}
The '''19-limit''' consists of [[just intonation]] [[interval]]s whose [[ratio]]s contain no [[prime factor]]s higher than 19. It is the 8th [[prime limit]] and is a superset of the [[17-limit]] and a subset of the [[23-limit]].  


The 19-prime-limit can be modeled in a 7-dimensional lattice, with the primes 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 19-limit lattice because octave equivalence is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, an eighth dimension is need.
The 19-limit is a [[rank and codimension|rank-8]] system, and can be modeled in a 7-dimensional [[lattice]], with the primes 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 19-limit lattice because [[octave equivalence]] is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, an eighth dimension is needed.


[[EDO]]s which provides an excellent tuning for 19-limit intervals are: {{EDOs| 80, 94, 111, 121, 217, 270, 282, 311, 320, 364, 388, 400, 422, 436, 460, 525, 581, 597, 624, 643, 653, 692, 718, 742, 771, 860, 867, 882, 908, 925, 935, 954, and 997 }} among others.
These things are contained by the 19-limit, but not the 17-limit:
* The [[19-odd-limit|19-]] and [[21-odd-limit]];
* Mode 10 and 11 of the harmonic or subharmonic series.
 
== Terminology and notation ==
[[Interval_region|Interval categories]] of [[harmonic class|HC19]] are relatively clear. [[19/16]] is most commonly considered a minor third, as 1–19/16–3/2 is an important {{w|tertian}} chord (the [[Functional Just System]] and [[Helmholtz–Ellis notation]] agree). However, 19/16 may act as an augmented second in certain cases. This is more complex on its own but may simplify certain combinations with other intervals, especially if [[17/16]] is considered an augmented unison and/or if [[23/16]] is considered an augmented fourth. Perhaps most interestingly, [[Sagittal notation]] provides an accidental to enharmonically spell intervals of HC19 this way.
 
== Edo approximation ==
Here is a list of [[edo]]s with progressively better tunings for 19-limit intervals ([[monotonicity limit]] ≥ 19 and decreasing [[TE error]]): {{EDOs| 34dh, 38df, 41, 50, 53, 58h, 68, 72, 94, 103h, 111, 121, 130, 140, 152fg, 159, 161, 183, 190g, 193, 212gh, 217, 243e, 270, 311, 400, 422, 460, 525, 581, 742, 935, 954h }} and so on. For a more comprehensive list, see [[Sequence of equal temperaments by error]].
 
Here is a list of edos which provides relatively good tunings for 19-limit intervals ([[TE relative error]] < 5%): {{EDOs| 72, 111, 217, 243e, 270, 282, 311, 354, 364, 373g, 400, 422, 460, 494(h), 525, 540, 581, 597, 624, 643, 653, 692, 718, 742, 764h, 814, 836f, 882, 908, 925, 935, 954h and }} so on.
 
: '''Note''': [[wart notation]] is used to specify the [[val]] chosen for the edo. In the above list, "34dh" means taking the second closest approximations of harmonics 7 and 19.
