For example, using "∨" to represent the interior product, we have mir = <<6 -7 -2 -25 -20 15|| for the wedgie of 7-limit miracle. Then the interior product mir ∨ |1 0 0 0> is <0 -6 7 2|, with 15/14 we get mir ∨ |-1 1 1 -1> which is <1 1 3 3|, and with 16/15 we get mir ∨ |4 -1 -1 0> which is also <1 1 3 3|; this val tempers out the commas of miracle and 15/14 (or 16/15), sending all of them to the unison. | For example, using "∨" to represent the interior product, we have mir = <<6 -7 -2 -25 -20 15|| for the wedgie of 7-limit miracle.

As explained on the [[Interior product#Applications|interior | As explained on the [[Interior product#Applications|interior product]] page, if W is the wedgie, then the tuning of map for the temperament can be defined via a multimonzo V which has the property that for every JI interval q, the tempered value of q is given by the dot product (W∨q).V. | ||

<ul><li><strong><a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Normal val lists</a></strong></li></ul>Given a list of vals, we may <a class="wiki_link" href="/Saturation">saturate</a> it and reduce it using the <a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Hermite normal form</a> to a normal val list, which canonically represents the abstract temperament. Applying the vals successively (an operation we may regard as a matrix multiplication if we like) to a rational interval gives an element in an abelian group representing the notes of the temperament. For example, the normal val list for 7-limit miracle is [&lt;1 1 3 3|, &lt;0 6 -7 -2|] and applying this to the monzo for either 16/15 or 15/14 leads to [0 1].<br /> | <ul><li><strong><a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Normal val lists</a></strong></li></ul>Given a list of vals, we may <a class="wiki_link" href="/Saturation">saturate</a> it and reduce it using the <a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Hermite normal form</a> to a normal val list, which canonically represents the abstract temperament.
