| Interval information |
septimal inframinor seventh
[sound info]
140/81, the septimal semidiminished seventh or septimal inframinor seventh is a 7-limit interseptimal ratio of about 947 cents. It is sharp of a supermajor sixth 12/7 by a sensamagic comma 245/243, and flat of a minor seventh 16/9 by a septimal quartertone 36/35.
It is also sharp of a major sixth 5/3 by a subminor second 28/27. For this fact it is useful in the Canovian chord and provides the function of a voice leading down to the major sixth.
The interval is so perfectly approximated by 19-edo, with an error of 0.05 cents. There are a number of edos that do this equally well, 171-edo to name one. The first edo that does this better than 19-edo with patent val is 660-edo.
