'''Metallic intonation''' ('''MTI'''){{idiosyncratic}} is a system which uses the irrational [[metallic harmonic series]], based on {{w|metallic mean}}s, rather than the [[harmonic series]] as the basis for an exact or tempered tuning. It was first described by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] in 2024. Metallic intonation is related to and can sometimes overlap with [[merciful intonation]]. Except for the [[1/1|unison]], it consists of only irrational intervals, and is inherently [[nonoctave]]. As the first metallic harmonic, [[acoustic phi]] is a possible candidate to serve as an [[equave]] in the same way as octave. Metallic intonation is suitable for inharmonic [[timbre]]s based on metallic harmonics rather than harmonics. | '''Metallic intonation''' ('''MTI'''){{idiosyncratic}} is a system which uses the irrational [[metallic harmonic series]], based on {{w|metallic mean}}s, rather than the [[harmonic series]] as the basis for an exact or tempered tuning.
