The '''JIP''' ('''just intonation point''') is a special tuning map that maps every monzo in some subgroup to its span in cents (or any other unit), relative to the point 1/1 (which maps to 0 cents).
The '''JIP''' ('''just intonation point''') is a special [[tuning map]] that maps every monzo in some subgroup to its span in cents (or any other unit), relative to the point 1/1 (which maps to 0 cents).


For instance, in 5-limit JI, the JIP is {{val | 1200.000 1901.955 2786.314 }}; if we take the bracket product of this tuning map with any monzo, we get its size in cents. Of course, one can always build the JIP using different units than cents.
