The //Dreyblatt Tuning System// is calculated from the third, fifth, seventh, ninth and eleventh overtones and their multiples in the following pattern:
|| 1 || 3 || 5 || 7 || 9 || 11 ||
|| 3 || 9 || 15 || 21 || 27 || 33 ||
|| 5 || 15 || 25 || 35 || 45 || 55 ||
|| 7 || 21 || 35 || 49 || 63 || 77 ||
|| 9 || 27 || 45 || 63 || 81 || 99 ||
|| 11 || 33 || 55 || 77 || 99 || 121 ||

These mathematically related overtones are heard as tonal relationships when they are transposed and sounded above a fundamental tone. In this process of transposition from their position in the natural overtone series, these tones fall (unequally) in the span of one octave in the following order:

1, 33, 35, 9, 77, 5, 81, 21, [11,] 45, 3, 49, 99, 25, 27, 55, 7, 15, 121, 63, (2)

These tones are performed in "just intonation' based on a fundamental tone of "F".

|| F || 349.2 || 1 || 0 ||

These tones are performed in &quot;just intonation' based on a fundamental tone of &quot;F&quot;. <br />
