4:6:7:9

From Xenharmonic Wiki
Revision as of 20:11, 4 December 2025 by TallKite (talk | contribs) (removed "condensed" -- that refers to octave-reducing each step interval, often sorely needed for the all-odd voicing, e.g. 1:3:7 -> 4:6:7. "condensed" when applied to a random voicing just means no step interval > 2/1, which is extremely common and not noteworthy. I think what you meant is 6:7:8:9 is a close voicing, but all these chords are presented in a close voicing, so that's redundant.)
