Other maximal dissonance tunings are possible, using different formulas based on assumptions of more complex timbres than sine waves. Simply iterating a function like <math>D(f)</math> makes the tuning only psychoacoustically interesting for consecutive scale steps. It may be interesting to, for example, optimize every group of ''n'' > 2 consecutive pitches to maximize dissonance.
