The second approach is to preserve the *harmonic* meaning of sharp/flat, major/minor and aug/dim, in that the former is always further fifthwards on the chain of fifths than the latter. Sharp is lower in pitch than flat, and major/aug is narrower than minor/dim. While this approach may seem bizarre at first, interval arithmetic and chord names work as usual. Furthermore, conventional 12edo music can be directly translated to 16edo "on the fly".

Alternatively, one can use Armodue nine-nominal notation; see [[#Hexadecaphonic Notation]]
