Below the intervals of the [[27-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] are tabulated, with the sizes listed in both [[cent]]s and minas. The value in minas, rounded to the nearest integer, can be found by applying the [[23-limit]] [[patent val]] <2460 3899 5712 6906 8510 9103 10055 10450 11128| for 2460edo; this will not work for [[1200edo]] and cents. | Below the intervals of the [[27-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] are tabulated, with the sizes listed in both [[cent]]s and minas.
