If reduced with acoustic phi as the period, the chord formed by the silver and bronze ratios above the root is, coincidentally, a fairly conventional major triad (0¢-402.2¢-692.7¢). This makes it so traditional chord types are easily accessible in MTI systems, but not octaves, similarly to the [[Carlos Alpha]] tuning. [[6edφ]] offers a basic equal-tempered approximation of the metallic major triad by steps 0-3-5 (0¢-416.5¢-694.2¢), although the sharpness of the major third is more apparent. | If reduced with acoustic phi as the period, the chord formed by the silver and bronze ratios above the root is, coincidentally, a fairly conventional major triad (0¢-402.2¢-692.7¢).
