The whole table covers roughly the range of a fourth (the range where the ajnas - maqam tetrachords - reside). Each row corresponds to one string of the qanun. In the first column stands the basic (relative) tuning of a string while the following columns indicate possible intervals that can be reached via lowering the mandals/orabs. | The whole table covers roughly the range of a fourth (the range where the ajnas - maqam tetrachords - reside).

The first table contains the cent values and the second the just intervals, sometimes differing between ascending and descending ratios. The middle part (which is the one that is mainly varying among the systems) is marked in bold. | The first table contains the cent values and the second the just intervals, sometimes differing between ascending and descending ratios.
