For example, neogothic thirds may be found between roughly 271 and 291 cents, and between 411 and 431 cents. Common neogothic intervals can be found by taking the mediant of a major and supermajor, or minor and subminor, interval, and include: | ||
* [[17/15]] (217c), neogothic major second | * [[17/15]] (217c), neogothic major second | ||

Optionally, the category of neogothic may be split into two smaller categories. Tuning ranges have been provided in terms of thirds: | Optionally, the category of neogothic may be split into two smaller categories. Tuning ranges have been provided in terms of thirds: | ||
* '''Neomajor''' and '''neominor,''' for thirds, range between about | * '''Neomajor''' and '''neominor,''' for thirds, range between about 411-421 and 281-291 cents, respectively. These can be considered "true" neogothic intervals, as the thirds are generated by fifths in the [[gentle region]], a core aspect of neogothic harmony. Neomajor seconds range from about 205-215 cents. For a given [[neutral]] interval ''k'' in cents, the neomajor version is found at around k+65, and the neominor version is found at around k-65. | ||

The thirds are generated by fifths in the inverse-gentle or shrub region (between about 706 to 708 cents). Gothmajor seconds are roughly 215-225 cents. For a given [[neutral]] interval ''k'' in cents, the goth/shrubmajor version is found at around k+75, and the gothminor version is found at around k-75. | ||
