Original Wikitext content:
The //7-limit// or "7 prime-limit" refers to a constraint on rational intervals such that 7 is the highest allowable prime number, so that every such interval may be written as a ratio of integers which are products of 2, 3, 5 and 7. This is an infinite set and still infinite even if we restrict consideration to a single octave. Some examples within the octave include [[9_7|9/7]], [[14_9|14/9]], [[15_14|15/14]], [[28_15|28/15]], [[21_16|21/16]], [[32_21|32/21]], [[25_14|25/14]], [[28_25|28/25]], [[25_21|25/21]], [[42_25|42/25]], [[28_27|28/27]], [[27_14|27/14]], [[35_28|35/28]], [[56_35|56/35]], 45/28, 56/45, 49/32, 64/49, 49/36, 72/49, 49/30, 60/49, 49/25, 50/49, 49/27, 54/49, 49/35, 70/49, 49/45, 90/49. "7 odd-limit" refers to a constraint on the selection of [[JustIntonation|just]] [[Interval class|intervals]] for a scale or composition such that 7 is the highest allowable odd number, either for the intervals of the scale, or the ratios between successive or simultaneously sounding notes of the composition. The complete list of 7 odd-limit intervals within the octave is [[1_1|1/1]], [[8_7|8/7]], [[7_6|7/6]], [[6_5|6/5]], [[5_4|5/4]], [[4_3|4/3]], [[7_5|7/5]], [[10_7|10/7]], [[3_2|3/2]], [[8_5|8/5]], [[5_3|5/3]], [[12_7|12/7]], [[7_4|7/4]], [[2_1|2/1]], which is known as the 7-limit [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonality_diamond|tonality diamond]]. The phrase "7-limit just intonation" usually refers to the 7 prime-limit and includes primes 2, 3, 5, and 7. When octave equivalence is assumed, an interval can be taken as a pitch class representing that interval in every possible octave. This leaves primes 3, 5, and 7, which can be represented in [[The Seven Limit Symmetrical Lattices|3-dimensional lattice diagrams]], each prime represented by a different dimension. Lattices describing scales beyond the 7-limit require more than three dimensions, and in the 7-limit, such lattices have unique features which simplify the relations between 7-limit chords. For a variety of reasons, common-practice music has been somewhat stuck at the 5-limit for centuries, though 7-limit intervals have a characteristic jazzy sound which is at least partially familiar. Music in the 7-limit thus represents a large step forward, although not as much as 11- or 13-limit, which usually sound much more exotic. Relative to their size, the equal divisions [[12edo]], [[19edo]], [[31edo]], [[99edo]] and [[171edo]] provide good approximations to the 7-limit, with [[15edo]], [[22edo]], [[27edo]], [[41edo]], [[46edo]], [[53edo]], [[58edo]], [[68edo]], [[72edo]], [[118edo]], [[130edo]], [[140edo]] and [[152edo]] among the others worthy of notice. see [[Harmonic Limit]] =Music= [[http://micro.soonlabel.com/blue-tuning/blue-ji-excluded-by-peers.mp3|Excluded by Peers]] by [[Chris Vaisvil]] [[http://micro.soonlabel.com/centaur_tuning/Prelude_For_Centaur_Tuned_Piano.mp3|Prelude for Centaur Tuned Piano]] by Chris Vaisvil [[http://clones.soonlabel.com/public/micro/gene_ward_smith/Others/Prelude%20%231%20for%207-limit%20JI.mp3|Prelude #1 in 7-limit JI]] by [[Ivor Darreg]] <-- are there any notations for it?
