Intervals of BP: Difference between revisions

No edit summary
Fredg999 (talk | contribs)
Reorganized table, emphasized standard JI values, added hekts, increased precision to 3 digits (except for the nearby JI columns), fixed a few errors, added a few lines at the bottom to reach ~5 octaves
Line 1: Line 1:
This page gives the intervals of the equal tempered [[BP|Bohlen-Pierce]] scale -- the 13th root of 3, along with some nearby just ratios for comparison.
This page lists the first 42 intervals of the [[Bohlen-Pierce]] scale in both its [[just intonation]] (JI) version and its [[Equal-step tuning|equal-tempered]] (ET) version, which also known as [[13edt]].
 
In the "nearby JI intervals, octave-reduced" columns, the intervals from the original just BP scale are in bold. Errors are sorted by ascending absolute value.
