Interval span: Difference between revisions

Added a ‘not to be confused with’ line at the top as a temporary band aid response to the discussion in the talk page. My edit doesn’t attempt to resolve the debate about the term, it just makes all this less confusing for readers in the mean time and buys other editors time to sort it out calmly without worrying about doing readers a disservice in the mean time. |

The '''span''' of an interval is a technical term referring to the [[Interval size measure|size of an interval]], typically in some logarithmic unit such as cents, octaves, or something else. The [[JIP]] can give the span of any just interval, whereas within regular temperaments, this is typically given by a [[tuning map]]. | The '''span''' of an interval is a technical term referring to the [[Interval size measure|size of an interval]], typically in some logarithmic unit such as cents, octaves, or something else.
