Talk:Sagittal notation: Difference between revisions

== Primary and Secondary roles of glyphs? ==

On several pages describing an interval that can be tempered out as a comma or approximated as a chroma, I have seen text describing the Sagittal symbol for the interval, usually with reference to "primary" and "secondary" roles, yet the Sagittal notation page itself has no mention of such dual functionality. Anybody have an explanation of why and how the Sagittal symbols have primary and secondary roles? Also why some don't have this (for example [[64/63]] and [[5120/5103]]), but some do (for instance, [[28/27]], [[567/550]], [[1701/1664]], [[1053/1024]], [[2835/2816]], and [[40/39]])? Which one is primary and which one is secondary doesn't always seem to correlate with how complicated the ratio is (with 28/27 and 40/9, the simpler ratio is considered secondary, whereas for the other ratios, the opposite is true).

== Musescore ==

For such sagittal notations, MuseScore 3 can only achieve the highest precision up to Herculean Extension. At least I don't find anything about Olympian Extension and Magrathean Extension.

By the way, I thought that pakai({{Sagittal| /|\ }}) and pakao({{Sagittal| \!/ }}) was ↑ and ↓.
