| http://www.plainsound.org/pdfs/JC&ToH.pdf gives Tenney's "harmonic distance" as
| |
| | |
| <ul class="quotelist"><li>HD(fa, fb) ∝ log(a) + log(b) = log(ab)</li></ul>
| |
| | |
| where a/b is the frequency ratio fa/fb in simplified form:
| |
| | |
| <ul class="quotelist"><li>a = fa /gcd(fa, fb), b = fb /gcd(fa, fb), and a ≥ b</li></ul>
| |
| | |
| http://lumma.org/tuning/faq/#heights defines it as sqrt(n*d), which is not the same.
| |
| | |
| sqrt(100*7) = 26.45
| |
| | |
| log2(100*7) = 9.45

| Tenney *harmonic distance* is not Tenney *height*, which is the topic of this page. My FAQ defines Tenney height as a*b. It says Tenney height is *generalized* to geomean(a*b*c...).
| |
| | |
| On this wiki, a*b is called Benedetti height. The name was changed after my FAQ was written, since Benedetti had priority.
