37/36

37/36, the large tricesimoseptimal (37-limit) quartertone, also known as the 37-limit Wyschnegradsky ~quartertone in Helmholtz–Ellis notation, is a 37-limit (specifically 2.3.37-subgroup) quartertone. It is the amount by which the octave-reduced 37th harmonic 37/32 exceeds the Pythagorean (major) whole tone of 9/8. It is wider than 38/37, the small tricesimoseptimal quartertone, by 1369/1368.

Notation

This interval is significant in the Functional Just System and Helmholtz–Ellis notation as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby tricesimoseptimal (37-limit) interval. In Helmholtz–Ellis notation, the symbol for the downward version of this interval is adapted from the demiflat in Ivan Wyschnegradsky's 72edo notation, whereas the upward version is a simple inverse of the downward version.
