A-team: Difference between revisions

Line 23:

The most plentiful consonant triad in A-Team scales is 4:9:21 or 8:18:21 (the voicing of the 21th harmonic is important to make it sound smooth), followed by 13:17:19 and 4:5:9. A-Team[13] in the following tuning has five copies of 4:5:9:13:17:21, five copies of 5:9:13:17:19:21, three copies of 4:5:9:11, two copies of 4:5:9:11:13, two copies of 4:5:9:13:17:19:21, and one copy of 4:9:(15):21:23. The 13-note [[MODMOS]] given by flattening just the seventh and eighth degrees of the LsLssLsLssLss mode of A-Team[13] by the 13-generator interval (~25.5 cents) gives the entire 4:5:9:11:13:17:19:21:23 otonal chord over a single root.

Extending the chain beyond 13 notes ~~can give~~ good, though irregular, mappings of 3/2 (with -17 generators) and 7/4 (with -15 generators) in the "better" tunings.
