The '''19-limit''' consists of [[just intonation]] [[interval]]s whose [[ratio]]s contain no [[prime factor]]s higher than 19.  
The '''19-limit''' consists of [[just intonation]] [[interval]]s whose [[ratio]]s contain no [[prime factor]]s higher than 19. It is the 8th [[prime limit]] and is thus a superset of the [[17-limit]] and a subset of the [[23-limit]].  


The 19-prime-limit is a [[Rank and codimension|rank-8]] system, and can be modeled in a 7-dimensional lattice, with the primes 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 19-limit lattice because octave equivalence is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, an eighth dimension is need.
