Pros: Easy to read | |||
Cons: Hard to write on a computer, doesn't fit with standard notation well | |||
==Sagittal Notation== | |||
Sagittal notation works extremely well for 24 Edo notation as well as other systems | |||
It's easy on the eyes, easy to recognize the various symbols and keeps a score looking tidy and neat. | |||
A possibility for the best approach would be to not use traditional sharps and flats altogether and replace them | |||
with Sagittal signs for sharp and flat. | |||

24edo features a rich variety on not only new chords, but also alterations that can be used with regular 12 Edo chords. For example, an approximation of the ninth, eleventh, and thirteenth harmonic can be added to a major triad to create a sort of super-extended chord structure of a major chord: 4:5:6:9:11:13.<br /> | 24edo features a rich variety on not only new chords, but also alterations that can be used with regular 12 Edo chords.
