For instance, in 5-limit JI, the JIP is {{val | 1200.000 1901.955 2786.314 }}; if we take the bracket product of this tuning map with any monzo, we get its size in cents. Of course, one can always build the JIP using different units than cents.

For prime limits, the JIP has a particularly simple definition in Tenney-weighted coordinates, where it is always the all-ones vector or {{val | 1 1 1 ...}}.

The JIP, commonly denoted J, is a point in ''p''-limit [[Vals and tuning space|tuning space]] which represents untempered ''p''-limit JI. Specifically, it is equal to {{val| log<sub>2</sub>2 log<sub>2</sub>3 log<sub>2</sub>5 … log<sub>2</sub>''p'' }}, meaning that each prime ''q'' in the ''p''-prime limit is tuned to log<sub>2</sub>''q'' octaves (which is exactly the just value of the prime ''q'').
