The '''Helmholtz–Ellis JI pitch notation''' ('''HEJI''') is a [[musical notation]] system for [[just intonation]] intervals up to the [[47-limit]]. | The '''Helmholtz–Ellis JI pitch notation''' ('''HEJI''') is a [[musical notation]] system for [[just intonation]] intervals up to the [[47-limit]]. Based on [[chain-of-fifths notation]] with default staff notation representing [[Pythagorean tuning]], it adds a set of [[nominal-accidental chain|accidentals]] defined by [[formal comma]]s to reach each [[prime harmonic]]. | ||
Further accidentals were designed by [[richie]] for primes up to the [[89-limit]]; see [[richie's HEJI extensions]]. | Further accidentals were designed by [[richie]] for primes up to the [[89-limit]]; see [[richie's HEJI extensions]]. | ||
