11edo: Difference between revisions

<ul><li>The "minor second," at 109.09 cents, functions melodically and harmonically very much like the 100-cent minor second of 12edo.</li><li>The "major second," at 218.18 cents, works in a similar fashion to the 200-cent major second of 12edo, but as a major ninth, it may sound less concordant. Its inversion, at 981.82 cents, can function as a "bluesy" seventh relative to 12edo's 1000-cent interval, although it is still about 13 cents away from 7/4.</li><li>The "minor third," at 327.27 cents, is rather sharp and encroaching upon "neutral third."</li><li>The "major third," at 436.36 cents, is quite sharp, and closer to the supermajor third of frequency ratio 9/7 than the simpler third of 5/4.</li><li>The "perfect fourth," at 545.45 cents, does not sound like a perfect fourth at all, and passes more easily as the 11/8 superfourth than the simpler perfect fourth of 4/3.</li></ul>11edo provides the same tuning on the [[k*N_subgroups|2*11 subgroup]] 2.9.15.7.11 as does 22edo, and on this subgroup it tempers out the same commas as 22. Also on this subgroup there is an approximation of the 8:9:11:14:15:16 chord and its subchords. Though the error is rather large, this does provide 11 with a variety of chords approximating JI chords.
