In [[JustIntonation|just intonation]], Isoharmonic chords are | In [[JustIntonation|just intonation]], Isoharmonic chords are built by successive jumps up the [[OverToneSeries|harmonic series]] by some number of steps. Since the harmonic series is arranged such that each higher step is smaller than the one before it, all isoharmonic chords have this same shape -- with diminishing step size as one ascends. All isoharmonic chords are equal-hertz chords, meaning that the frequencies of the notes are in an arithmetic sequence with an equal difference in cycles per second between successive notes. However, not all equal-hertz chords are isoharmonic chords, since the ratios between the notes need not be integers. An isoharmonic "chord" may function more like a "scale" than a chord (depending on the composition of course), but we will use the word "chord" on this page for consistency. | ||
