<h2>IMPORTED REVISION FROM WIKISPACES</h2>
A "superfourth" is an interval too wide to sound like a [[Perfect_fourth|perfect fourth]] and too narrow to sound like a [[tritone|tritone]]. [[Margo_Schulter|Margo Schulter]], in her article [http://www.bestii.com/%7Emschulter/IntervalSpectrumRegions.txt Regions of the Interval Spectrum], proposes an approximate range for a superfourth to be from 528¢ to 560¢. Some of the simplest superfourths in [[Just_intonation|Just Intonation]] are [[11/8|11/8]] (about 551.3¢) and [[15/11|15/11]] (about 537¢), both undecimal (11-based) superfourths; and [[48/35|48/35]] (about 546.8¢) and [[49/36|49/36]] (about 533.7¢), both septimal (7-based) superfourths.

The inversion of a superfourth is a [[subfifth]].

Of course, it should never be taken for granted that these categories are subjective and culturally influenced, and the borders are "fuzzy". Other description are possible and legitimate.
