Talk:33/25: Difference between revisions

Line 18:

:::::: Now that I think about it, however, I should point out that since the difference in cents between 4/3 and 33/25 is about 17.4 cents, and since the difference between this and a syntonic comma is actually around 4.1 cents, and this is noticeable, I'm thinking that fifths and fourths that differ from their perfect counterparts by a noticeably smaller interval than a syntonic comma should be the only fifths and fourths that are designated as "imperfect". If the difference between a given fourth or fifth and it's just 3-limit counterpart is within an unnoticeable comma's distance of 81/80, the fourth or fifth in question should be designated as either "grave" or "acute". Beyond that up until that difference starts to get too close to 33/32 on either side of the just perfect fourth or just perfect fifth, the intervals should just be designated with the super- and sub- prefixes. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 22:55, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

:::::: Oh, and sorry about the multiple edits of the above comment. I should have taken the time to gather my thoughts together first. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 23:03, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
