In just intonation, commas are often seen as the difference between two similar intervals, so it is hard to find intervals within this range that are treated as steps in their own right. The 3-limit interval in this range is the Pythagorean comma of [[531441/524288]], which can be considered an augmented seventh (octave-reduced), and is about 23{{c}}. | In just intonation, commas are often seen as the difference between two similar intervals, so it is hard to find intervals within this range that are treated as steps in their own right.
