It's possible to create a working neji by simply approximating an edo as closely as possible with selected harmonics. However, it is sometimes preferable to build particular aesthetic choices into a neji. One such common choice is to focus on a few intervals in the edo being "nejified" which are of particular interest. The root harmonic is then selected to approximate these intervals of interest as well as possible; the remaining harmonics to fill in the rest of the edo are chosen based on their ability to fit well with the existing notes. | It's possible to create a working neji by simply approximating an edo as closely as possible with selected harmonics.

== Nascji == | |||
A nascji{{idiosyncratic}}, (pronounced /ˈnɑːzkʒi/; "nazc" as in "Nazca lines", "jee" as in "jeep") is a tuning which approximates another unequal tuning (such as a circulating/well temperament, a [[rank-2 temperament]], a [[MOS scale]] or anything else) by dividing a JI [[equave]] with a subset of a mode of the [[harmonic series]]. It is a possible formal term to replace the informal use of "neji" to refer to approximations of unequal scales. | |||
