Talk:144/125: Difference between revisions

Line 15:

::::: While I concur with your assessment of [[144/125]] as not being ''the'' classic diminished third, I do have to ask how we distinguish the 5-limit versions of the diminished third, the augmented sixth, the augmented third and the diminished sixth from other varieties... Besides which, as the greater Neapolitan scale and its modes are actually proper modes in 12edo, and we still have to contend with [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_sixth_chord augmented sixth chords] appearing in classical music and stuff such, I would think that certain 5-limit augmented thirds, diminished thirds, augmented sixths and diminished sixths should still be counted as "classic" as opposed to just "pental". --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 20:32, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

::::: For instance, I labeled [[256/225]] and [[225/128]] as "Neapolitan" intervals because of their appearance in Neapolitan scales in a similar fashion to how Diatonic intervals are labeled "Diatonic" because of their appearance in diatonic scales, and since [[256/225]] and [[225/128]] are both 5-limit intervals, I would argue that "Neapolitan diminished third" and "Neapolitan augmented sixth" could be expanded to "Classic Neapolitan diminished third" and "Classic Neapolitan augmented sixth" in order to distinguish them from 7-limit versions of Neapolitan intervals- for instance. I mean, 7-limit intervals can sometimes be considered "Diatonic" in a similar vein, can they not? --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 20:40, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

== As a comma ==

The idea of tempering out such a big comma confuses me. I read the [[University temperament]] article, I heard the piece. Which actually seems to be in a tuning near [[21edo]]. Isn't this just an error in nomenclature? I appreciate any help for better understanding. Thanks --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 16:01, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
