Major minthmic chords: Difference between revisions

Line 27:

Note that tempering 1-11/9-3/2-7/4 and 1-11/9-3/2-12/7 in [[jove tetrads|jove]] is also possible, leading to a similar but not identical chord.

Finally, there are a pair of minthmic heptads:

* 1-9/8-11/9-4/3-3/2-13/8-11/6 with steps 9/8-13/12-12/11-9/8-13/12-9/8-12/11, and its inverse

* 1-9/8-16/13-4/3-3/2-18/11-24/13 with steps 9/8-12/11-13/12-9/8-12/11-9/8-13/12.

Mintha was a nymph turned into a mint plant by a goddess whom she got in the way of, and minthmic tempering has the slightly sharp, minty-fresh fifths some people appreciate ([[Margo Schulter]] has expressed great fondness for this comma, for example.) Equal temperaments with minthmic chords include {{EDOs| 22, 29, 46, 53, 80, 87, 111, 121, 140, 198 and 205 }}.
