'''Antipodism''' - Notes that are either opposite in tone color or nearly so due to being approximately half an octave away from the starting point are harmonically opposed to the starting point. Non-tonic notes related through this process tend to have the opposite function relative to the Tonic. For the notes related to the Tonic by this process see Antitonic below. | '''Antipodism''' - Notes that are either opposite in tone color or nearly so due to being approximately half an octave away from the starting point are harmonically opposed to the starting point.

'''Preparation''' - These are notes that "prepare the way" for either a Dominant or a Serviant through any of the above operations, or through some other mechanism. Functions which have this kind of role relative are denoted with a "pre-" prefix. | '''Preparation''' - These are notes that "prepare the way" for either a Dominant or a Serviant through any of the above operations, or through some other mechanism.

'''Immitation''' - These are notes that can substitute for either the Dominant or Serviant functions through chromatic-type alteration. Functions which have this kind of role relative are denoted with a "mock-" prefix. | '''Immitation''' - These are notes that can substitute for either the Dominant or Serviant functions through chromatic-type alteration.
