| * being able to use traditional note names like in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_pitch_notation|Scientific Pitch Notation]], e.g. C4, G5, F#2, Bb7
| |
| * higher prime commas describe microtonal alterations, e.g. [5] [7] [257]
| |
| * prime commas can be combined into a single rational comma for each notation, e.g. [35] = [5] * [7], [11/13] = [11]/[13]
| |
| * it uses algorithms to assign all higher prime commas
| |
| * RCN has a version for each algorithm (the author recommends a particular algorithm)
