In the 19-limit it may be tuned as 4:8:10:14:16:19, an extended harmonic seventh chord.

Tempered interpretations

Interpretations as a tempered chord.

Essentially tempered

It can also be tuned as an essentially tempered chord that splits the difference between the 19/8 10th and the 7/3 10th. This chord tempers out the hendrix comma of 57/56.

The paragraph about tempering 57/56 needs more explanation, and may be incorrect.

In EDOs

EDOs with hendrix chords include the 9, 10, 14, 16, 17, 21, 22, 26, and 31.
