'''55/32''', the '''keenanismic supermajor sixth''', is [[385/384]] (~4.5 [[cent|¢]]) sharper than [[12/7]], making it more than a bit useful in [[11-limit]] just intonation.
'''55/32''', the '''keenanismic supermajor sixth''', is [[385/384]] (~4.5 [[cent|¢]]) sharper than [[12/7]], making it more than a bit useful in [[11-limit]] just intonation.
It also happens to be the ratio between the standard A of 440Hz and the nonstandard C of 256Hz occasionally used for mathematical convenience.
