Original Wikitext content:
Intervals wider than a tenth (regular: 1680 cents or augmented: ~1810.01 cents) may be taken directly as the base of a of family of tonalities. However, the utility of such intervals as bases is limited by the fact that //it is generally difficult for a singer to reach much more than an augmented tenth above a given note (at least very reliably) without prior training and it is nevertheless not even very dramatic to do it regardless of how reliably it is done//. In particular, the eleventh is slightly complicated to use as a base because it appears as a suspension of the major third or a compound tritone when it does in common practice. Even so, a few such wider intervals have seen direct uses as bases of families of tonalities: * [[edt|Equal divisions of the tritave]] * [[ed5|Equal divisions of the fifth harmonic]] * [[ed6|Equal divisions of the sixth harmonic]] * [[ed7|Equal divisions of the seventh harmonic]]
