The way I see it, there are | The way I see it, there are eight known operations which can be used to derive additional diatonic functions from the three basic functions listed above. | ||
'''Stacking''' - The notes that are arrived at through stacking multiple instances of either 3/2 or 4/3 (or their tempered counterparts) are dubbed according to the number of instances stacked, and the nature of the notes separated by the interval being stacked. Thus, stacking two instances of the Dominant or the Serviant results in the creation of the "Double Dominant" or "Double Serviant" respectively. This concept comes from the German language's way of referring to the chord built on the second scale degree of the Diatonic scale as the "Doppeldominante", which literally means "Double Dominant". | '''Stacking''' - The notes that are arrived at through stacking multiple instances of either 3/2 or 4/3 (or their tempered counterparts) are dubbed according to the number of instances stacked, and the nature of the notes separated by the interval being stacked.
