In terms of [[Interval region|interval regions]], "comma" refers to an interval flatter than about 30{{c}}, and "diesis" refers to an interval between about 30 and 60{{c}}. | In terms of [[Interval region|interval regions]], "comma" refers to an interval flatter than about 30{{c}}, and "diesis" refers to an interval between about 30 and 60{{c}}. | ||
The range of dieses largely overlaps with the range of [[Quarter tone|quarter tones]] (between 40 and 60{{c}}, reasonably mapped to 1/24edo), which, according to systems that determine consonance in terms of proximity to simple just ratios, is one of the most dissonant interval regions. | The range of dieses largely overlaps with the range of [[Quarter tone|quarter tones]] (between 40 and 60{{c}}, reasonably mapped to 1/24edo), which, according to systems that determine consonance in terms of proximity to simple just ratios, is one of the most dissonant interval regions. However, quarter tones are still covered here to provide a resource for them in the same format as the other interval region pages. | ||
