	'''Indexed interval notation''' is a notation for [[just intonation]] devised by [[User:CompactStar\|CompactStar]].		'''Indexed interval notation''' is a notation for [[just intonation]] devised by [[User:CompactStar\|CompactStar]].

	Intervals are represented by a normal interval category (like minor 3rd, perfect 4th or etc.) and an index. The index is 1 for the simplest (with respect [[Tenney height]]) interval in a category, 2 for the second-simplest, 3 for the third-simplest and so on. For example, [[6/5]] is the 1st minor 3rd (1m3) and [[7/6]] is the 2nd minor 3rd (2m3). Note names work the same way, using A as the reference pitch, so the C which is 6/5 above A (528 Hz) is notated as 1C.
