4th-octave temperaments: Difference between revisions
Move quad here. Remove "hunt 19-cycle" (it's simply 4et) |
Replace "western theory" with something reasonable; normalize subgroups; cleanup |

Usage of the [[6/5]] minor third as one step of 4edo by tempering out [[648/625]], and therefore using 4edo as a diminished seventh chord produced by stacking three minor thirds is one of the features of standard Western music theory, and is supported by [[12edo]].

The generator is close to the [[36/35]] quartertone, and this allows an extension to the 2.3.35.11.19 subgroup. 5 of them make [[11/8]], 8 of them make [[3/2]], and 6 of them make [[32/19]]. | ||
