A graphical expression of the interval chain of the Pepsi.

The Pepsi[idiosyncratic term] (name proposed by R-4981) tuning system is the geometric pitch sequence (GPS) where the initial interval is 3/2 (701.955¢) and each subsequent interval has its pitch measure multiplied by √3.

The formula for the nth interval of this tuning, where p(n) is pitch in cents, is:

[math]\displaystyle{ p(n) \approx 701.955~¢ \cdot 3^{n/2} }[/math],

or in its exact form:

[math]\displaystyle{ p(n) = \left(1200 \log_2 \left(\frac{3}{2}\right) \right)¢ \cdot 3^{n/2} }[/math].

At first glance, this tuning exhibits characteristics similar to Redbull, namely its common use of √3, but the direction of its potential use value is fundamentally different because of the different construction methods. Also, since the double index is not a tetration (obvious), this scale cannot be expressed in EDSO or super-pitch.

Interval chain

In this table, the intervals are octave-reduced. Except 3/2 which is just by construction, every ratio given in the second row is approximated by the corresponding pitch of the tuning.
