The | The degrees are named as 0-indexed numbers of “sem”, which stands for “'''sem'''itone”, referring to the chromatic step. [[12edo]] diatonic interval names can also be used for representing degrees, with A4 and d5 merged into “tritone”. The [[5L 7s]] major, minor, augmented and diminished are renamed to wide (W), narrow (n), super (S) and sub (s) respectively, to avoid ambiguity. Note that diatonic major is always wide and diatonic minor is always narrow, which also applies to fourths and fifths as if they were named the same as other intervals. Mid or neutral degrees should be abbreviated as “m” or “~” to avoid confusion with “n” which stands for narrow. | ||
