As a concrete [[interval region]], it is typically near 600 [[Cent|cents]] in size. A rough tuning range for the tritone is about 560 to 640 cents according to [[Margo Schulter]]'s theory of interval regions. ''Tritone'' in this sense can also refer to the semi-octave, a tritone of exactly 600 cents found in every even [[edo]], due to the fact that it is [[2edo|1\2edo]]. | As a concrete [[interval region]], it is typically near 600 [[Cent|cents]] in size.

For the sake of fully covering the range of intervals within the octave, this page also covers '''semiaugmented fourths''' of about 550 cents, and '''semidiminished fifths''' of about 650 cents. | For the sake of fully covering the range of intervals within the octave, this page also covers '''semiaugmented fourths''' of about 550 cents, and '''semidiminished fifths''' of about 650 cents. Note that these are not conventionally considered tritones, and are included here for simplicity. More info may be found at [[semiaugmented fourth]] and [[semidiminished fifth]]. | ||
