The golden ratio can be used as a frequency multiplier or as a pitch fraction; in the former case it is known as [[acoustic phi]] and in the latter case it is known as [[logarithmic phi]]. These two versions of phi have completely different musical applications which can be read about in detail on their separate pages. [[Lemba]] is a notable [[regular temperament]] for approximating both versions of phi simultaneously, requiring only two of its [[generators]] for logarithmic phi, and only one each of its generator and [[period]] for acoustic phi.
