* Lowering the FJS radius of tolerance. This ensures the formal comma of the 11th harmonic is a neutral interval (in particular, a semi-augmented fourth) which lets us write "n2_11" for [[12/11]], "n3^11" for [[11/9]], etc.

I call this modification the '''Neutral FJS''', and you can experiment with it [https://www.yacavone.net/fjs-explorer/?rotPreset=3&fifthSeqPreset=2 here] or in [https://www.yacavone.net/xen-calc/ xen-calc]. Be sure to check out the table with some examples at the end of the third section.

Be sure to check out the [[#nfjs-examples|table of examples]] at the end of the third section.


In the first section, I precisely define what a Pythagorean interval is, and in the second, show how to extend this definition naturally to include neutral intervals. If you don't care about the details, skip to the table at the end of the second section. In the third second, I give a brief overview of the FJS and discuss how to modify it. In the last two sections, we discuss the pros and cons of this modification and preview some generalizations.
