If we are willing to go as high as the [[15-odd-limit]], there are many more keenanismic chords, all of which have a step of size [[16/15]]. There are six additional keenanismic triads in the 15-odd-limit, 32 additional keenanismic tetrads and 44 additional pentads. | If we are willing to go as high as the [[15-odd-limit]], there are many more keenanismic chords, all of which have a step of size [[16/15]].
