==Kite Giedraitis's solfege==
==Uniform solfege==


[[Kite Giedraitis|Kite's]] [[24edo]] solfege uses the conventional consonants D, R, M, F, S, L and T. It uses unconventional vowels. For each degree, the sequence runs [[wikipedia:Front_vowel|front]] to [[wikipedia:Back_vowel|back]] (i.e. bright to dim) -i -e -a -o -u for upmajor-major-mid-minor-downminor. It uses the same 33 note names as Kite's [[31edo solfege]].
See [[Uniform solfege]] for a full explanation.

It's fairly easy to find the note a 4th or 5th above any note. The consonant is as would be expected from conventional interval arithmetic. There are only 3 fifths that don't rhyme:

Line 401: Line 727:
Thus Re plus a 4th is Se, Ro plus a 5th is Lo, etc. And in the example scales above, the 3rd, 6th and 7th always rhyme, as do the tonic and 4th, as do the 2nd and 5th.

However going a 5th up from an aug or upaug 4th would go to an aug or upaug 8ve, which doesn't exist in this solfege. Therefore one must rename the 4th as a dim 5th, then go up to a minor 2nd. Thus Fe + 5th = So + 5th = Ro. Dim 5ths may also need renaming: So + 4th = Fe + 4th = Te.
