The tetrad can be extended to a 15-limit nonad, the orwell-tempered version of 1-11/10-7/6-9/7-11/8-3/2-8/5-7/4-15/8, with steps of size 11/10-15/14-11/10-15/14-11/10-15/14-11/10-15/14-15/14. The orwell nonad is the same as the Orwell[9] MOS, considered as a chord. Since it can be considered to be a chord, it is possible to retune music from 12edo to Orwell[9] by using [[orwell9-12|this scale]]. Examples of music retuned in this way are given below:

Original Wikitext content:

The **orwell tetrad** is a four-note chord which in close position (reduced to the octave) consists of a chain of three subminor thirds, thirds of approximately [[7_6|7/6]] in size, and a major third, of approximately [[5_4|5/4]] in size, which closes at the octave since the [[orwell comma]], 1728/1715, is tempered out; in other words, a 7/6-7/6-7/6-5/4 chord. Equal temperaments tempering out 1728/1715 and hence containing orwell tetrads include 22, 26, 27, 31, 53, 58, 80, 84, 111 and 137.

[[media type="file" key="OrwellTetrad22edo.mp3"]]
Orwell tetrad, in [[22edo]] tuning

The orwell tetrad can in a natural way be extended to the [[11-limit]] as 1-7/6-11/8-8/5 by tempering out 99/98, a comma of 11-limit [[orwell]]. With a bit more accuracy, tempering out 176/175 and so also 540/539 allows it to be seen as the [[Orwellismic family#Guanyin|guanyin]] tetrad, a tempered version of 1-7/6-15/11-8/5. Equal temperaments with guanyin tetrads include 22, 31, 53, 58, 80 and 111. In orwell temperament, where 121/120 is tempered out, the guanyin and orwell tetrads are the same.

The tetrad can be extended to a 15-limit nonad, the orwell-tempered version of 1-11/10-7/6-9/7-11/8-3/2-8/5-7/4-15/8, with steps of size 11/10-15/14-11/10-15/14-11/10-15/14-11/10-15/14-15/14. The orwell nonad is the same as the Orwell[9] MOS, considered as a chord. Since it can be considered to be a chord, it is possible to retune music from 12edo to Orwell[9] by using [[orwell9-12|this scale]]. Examples of music retuned in this way are given below:
