One of four chords named for a similar type of chord found in oneirotonic scales, the lowered major triad is a bright but tense triad which consists of the root, the 400¢ major third on top of that, and the 250¢ infra third on top of that. When this triad is built on the note located 550 cents above the tonic, especially with octave reduplication of the root, it can easily be followed up with with the same tonic's traditional V7 chord. In modulation, this same triad can also be followed up with a dominant seventh chord built on the same root, leading to the tonicization of the neutral seventh. Regardless, the use of this chord requires the proper harmonic and melodic set-ups, with one of the most reliable set-ups early on being the 0¢-550¢-700¢ suspension chord, though the IIImin and Imaj triads also work later on.

One of four chords named for a similar type of chord found in oneirotonic scales, the lowered minor triad is a triad which consists of the root, the 300¢ minor third on top of that, and the 350¢ neutral third on top of that. It is also one of two triads that can be considered to sound like a xenharmonic version of a diminished triad.

The lowered infra triad is a triad which consists of the root, the 250¢ Infra third on top of that, and the 400¢ major third on top of that. Like the lowered major triad, when this triad is built on the note located 550 cents above the tonic, especially with octave reduplication of the root, it can easily be followed up with the same tonic's traditional V7 chord. However, the use of this chord also requires the proper set-ups in terms of both melody and harmony, especially the 0¢-550¢-700¢ suspension chord early on, though the bVImaj triad and the Imin triad also work later on.
The lowered inframinor triad is a triad which consists of the root, the 250¢ inframinor third on top of that, and the 400¢ major third on top of that. Like the lowered major triad, when this triad is built on the note located 550 cents above the tonic, especially with octave reduplication of the root, it can easily be followed up with the same tonic's traditional V7 chord. However, the use of this chord also requires the proper set-ups in terms of both melody and harmony, especially the 0¢-550¢-700¢ suspension chord early on, though the bVImaj triad and the Imin triad also work later on.
