In 16-tone, because of the 25 cent difference in the steps from 100 in 12-tone, a western "twelve tone ear" hears dissonance with more complexity and less familiarity than even 24-tone, yet within a more manageable number of tones and a strange familiarity - the diminished. Hence, why 16-tone is a truly Xenharmonic system. | In 16-tone, because of the 25 cent difference in the steps from 100 in 12-tone, a western "twelve tone ear" hears dissonance with more complexity and less familiarity than even 24-tone, yet within a more manageable number of tones and a strange familiarity - the diminished.
