The notation used in this article is J Ultharian (LsLLsLsL) = JKLMNOPQJ, with reference pitch J = 180 Hz, unless specified otherwise. We denote raising and lowering by a chroma (L − s) by & "amp" and @ "at". (Mnemonics: & "and" means additional pitch. @ "at" rhymes with "flat".) Ultharian has been chosen as the default mode because we want to carry over the diatonic idea of sharpening the second-to-last degree to get the leading tone for minor keys and the sharpened "Vmaj", and we also have the "sharp V" for the oneiromajor tonality by default.

Note: N is close to standard C, since the reference pitch 180 Hz for J was chosen to be nearly a pure 16/11 below standard 12edo C.
