| Interval information |
Pythagorean augmented fourth,
The Tyrant
reduced harmonic
[sound info]
729/512, the Pythagorean augmented fourth, may be reached by stacking six perfect fifths (3/2), and reducing by three octaves. It is separated from the 5-limit interval of 64/45 by the schisma (32805/32768), less than 2 ¢.
From a literal point of view, this interval is the only one that rightly bears the name tritone, because it is created by combining three tones: (9/8)3.
