Let's take [[5-limit]] just intation, and pick the [[128/125|diesis]] (128/125) and the [[syntonic comma]] (81/80) as our chromas.

The octave equivalent lattice is generated by fifths and just major thirds.
The octave equivalent lattice is generated by fifths and just major thirds.
The diesis can be reached by stacking three major thirds, so it has coordinates <math>(0, 3)</math>.
The diesis is the difference between an octave and three major thirds, so it has coordinates <math>(0, -3)</math>.
The syntonic comma is reached by stacking 4 fifths and going down a major third, so it has coordinates <math>(4, -1)</math>
