Portals are musical situations where you end up in a place different than expected or compared to another system. Usually associated with comma-pumps. For example, 15 edo's chain of fifths contains a portal somewhere between the third and fourth fifth in the cycle.

'''Squash and Stretch''': This is the feeling that a familiar element has been perceivably stretched or compressed yet still seems to work regardless of how good or bad it sounds. Examples are 13 EDO which seems to exhibit a fair amount of squash and stretch despite it's fun house familiarity to 12 edo. '''Oblique Squash and Stretch''' on the other hand is like Superpyth where the large interval is stretched and the small ones squashed. | '''[[Stretched tuning|Squash and Stretch]]''': This is the feeling that a familiar element has been perceivably stretched or compressed yet still seems to work regardless of how good or bad it sounds.

'''Melodic Disjunct:''' The effect where a melodic element is distorted in a non uniform way such that some sounds become narrower and some wider usually without pattern. | '''Melodic Disjunct:''' The effect where a melodic element is distorted in a non uniform way such that some sounds become narrower and some wider usually without pattern. | ||

'''Timbral Roughness:''' Element works movement wise but is rough in it's timbral quality. For example, using 720 cent as a 3/2 evokes a roughness yet feasibly works in context where it is established as such. | '''Timbral Roughness:''' Element works movement wise but is rough in it's timbral quality.

'''Musical Ambiguity:''' A particular element seems to work in a given context but the brain interprets it as also working as something else simultaneously forming a confusion. | '''Musical Ambiguity:''' A particular element seems to work in a given context but the brain interprets it as also working as something else simultaneously forming a confusion. | ||
