'''81/70''', the '''septimal ultramajor second''' is a [[7-limit]] [[interseptimal]] ratio of about 253 [[cent]]s. It is sharp of a major second [[9/8]] by a septimal quartertone [[36/35]], sharp of a supermajor second [[8/7]] by a syntonic comma [[81/80]], and flat of a subminor third [[7/6]] by a sensamagic comma [[245/243]]. | '''81/70''', the '''septimal ultramajor second''' is a [[7-limit]] [[interseptimal]] ratio of about 253 [[cent]]s.

Notice it is also flat of the just minor third [[6/5]] by a subminor second [[28/27]]. For this fact it is useful in the [[sensamagic dominant chord]] where it functions as a dissonance yet to be resolved up to the minor third. The [[Canou family|canou temperament]] targets this progression and uses it as one of the generators. | |||

It is perfectly approximated by [[19edo]] (4\19), with an error of 0.05 cents, and hence equally well done by the [[enneadecal]] temperament. | |||
