Being an abstract mos degree, and not a specific interval, the diatonic major third does not have a fixed tuning, but instead has a range of ways it can be tuned, based on the tuning of the generator used in making the scale. | Being an abstract mos degree, and not a specific interval, the diatonic major third does not have a fixed tuning, but instead has a range of ways it can be tuned, based on the tuning of the generator used in making the scale. | ||
The tuning range of the diatonic major third ranges from 342.8 | The tuning range of the diatonic major third ranges from 342.8 to 480{{c}}. The generator for a given tuning in cents, ''n'', for the diatonic major third can be found by {{sfrac|''n'' + 2400|4}}. For example, the third 384{{c}} gives us {{nowrap|{{sfrac|384 + 2400|4}} {{=}} {{sfrac|2784|4}} {{=}} 696{{c}}}}, corresponding to 50edo. | ||
