Thanks for this great explanation, Paul. Your answer is slightly different from the one Ed Borasky calculated with Derive: 2^( (2*pi) + 1 / (4*pi) ) -monz Yahoo! GeoCities * [with cont.] (Wayb.)

I think so. The LucyTuning "major third" is 2^(1/pi). Add two octaves to form the "major seventeenth": 2^(2+1/pi). Take the fourth root (since it's a meantone, the fifth will be the fourth root of the major seventeenth): 2^(1/2 + 1/(4*pi)). Is that right?

It's completely different. 2^( (2*pi) + 1 / (4*pi) ) = 82.2967 = 7635.3¢ 2^(1/2 + 1/(4*pi)) = 1.4944 = 695.49¢

Hmmm... oddly enough, Paul, when I plugged both of these formulas into Excel they gave the same result! (the latter of your two) My choice of additional parentheses must have made the difference. Here are the exact Excel formulas, which require PI to have an empty argument: PI() . =2^((2*PI()+1)/(4*PI())) =2^((1/2)+(1/(4*PI()))) Is there any way to decide which of the two is more elegant? Does it matter at all? Can you explain why they work out to the same ratio? -monz Yahoo! GeoCities * [with cont.] (Wayb.)

The choice of unison vectors, the effects this choice have on the resulting PBs, must be one of the most basic areas of inquiry here. Here, I would like to present some points for discussion (and/or clarification)... () Do we consider any intervals valid as unison vectors, even if they are very large? If so, do we have a name for PBs that have small unison vectors (i.e. "well formed" PBs...). () Do we have precise ideas on what counts as "small" and "large" when it comes to unison vectors? What properties are associated with them? For example, I think Erlich and I managed to show a while back that PBs with unison vectors smaller than their smallest 2nds share certain properties with MOS. () How are the above affected by the decision to temper out some or all of the unison vectors? For example, what happens when there are commatic unison vectors larger than any chromatic ones? -Carl

Message: 1067 - Contents - Hide Contents Date: Wed, 04 Jul 2001 22:13:19 Subject: Naming intervals using Miracle From: David C Keenan The Miracle temperament gives us a logical way of further extending the Fokker extended-diatonic interval-names from 31-EDO to Miracle chains, and hence to 41-EDO, 72-EDO and 11-limit JI. Previously there was no obvious way of deciding which of a pair of nearby intervals (such as the neutral seconds 10:11 and 11:12 or the minor sevenths 5:9 and 9:16) should be called "wide" or "narrow", and which should be unmodified. Now the answer is obvious. The unmodified one is the one that is represented within a chain of +-15 Miracle generators. i.e. The intervals available in Miracle-31 should be named the same as in 31-EDO, without using "wide" or "narrow". The table below shows how this scheme names the intervals of 72-EDO. Legend for interval names: 1 unison 2 second 3 third 4 fourth 5 fifth 6 sixth 7 seventh 8 octave m = minor N = neutral M = major d = diminished P = perfect A = augmented s = sub S = super n = narrow W = wide Legend for note names: A,B,C,D,E,F,G,#,b as for 12-tET ] = quarter-tone up (+50 c)

Hmm, I see that this is a unison vector in 25-TET, although the 5-step "whole tone" is quite large at 240 cents, and there's a better approximation of 9/8 at 192 cents. Of course this is also a unison vector in 31-TET. Along a line from 31-TET to 56-TET (31+25) there is a number of tempered scales that share this unison vector, and this line approaches very close to 5-limit just (closer even than the line between 31 and 22, which goes through 53!) I'm not sure what you can do with this, but it's a start. Look at the chart at http://www.io.com/~hmiller/png/et-scales.png - Type Ok * [with cont.] (Wayb.) and draw a line from 31 to 25: it looks like there could be some good scales there.

Good point. In 72-EDO, nP4 and Ws4 are indeed alternative names for the same interval. Ws4 is +35 generators and nP4 is -37 generators. The only time they might actually refer to different interval is on an open Miracle chain with 38 notes or more, or a closed one with more than 72 notes. So such distinctions are not really of any practical interest. There are 21 (=3*31-72) intervals with alternative names like this in 72-EDO. Then there are the alternative names allowed by the Fokker 31-EDO system itself (like sd5 and A4 for 5:7). These carry over to the Miracle system as well. Regards, -- Dave Keenan

Here is a table of the first dozen of each: P = (2^-19)*(3^12) = ~74/73 P^(1/2) = ~148/147 P^(1/3) = ~222/221 P^(1/4) = ~296/295 P^(1/5) = ~369/368 P^(1/6) = ~443/442 P^(1/7) = ~517/516 P^(1/8) = ~591/590 P^(1/9) = ~665/664 P^(1/10) = ~738/737 P^(1/11) = ~812/811 P^(1/12) = ~886/885 S = (2^-4)*(3^4)*(5^-1) = exactly 81/80 S^(1/2) = ~162/161 S^(1/3) = ~242/241 S^(1/4) = ~322/321 S^(1/5) = ~403/402 S^(1/6) = ~483/482 S^(1/7) = ~564/563 S^(1/8) = ~644/643 S^(1/9) = ~725/724 S^(1/10) = ~805/804 S^(1/11) = ~886/885 S^(1/12) = ~966/965 Notice that in this set of approximations, tempering by P^(1/12), S^(1/11), and 886/885 all give the same result, because P^(1/12) ~= S^(1/11). P^(1/12) is the interval measurement known as a "grad", and it is very close in size to S/P, which is the "skhisma". AFAIK, S^(1/11) does not have a name other than "1/11-comma". Below is a comparison. grads skhismas cents S^(1/11) ~1.000059525 ~1.000714763 ~1.955117236 P^(1/12) 1.0 ~1.0006552 ~1.955000865. S/P ~0.999345229 1.0 ~1.953720788 prime-factorizations: 2^ 3^ 5^ P^(1/12) = | -19/12 1 0 | S^(1/11) = | -4/11 4/11 -1/11 | S/P = | -15 8 1 | Note that 887/886 gives the closest superparticular rational approximation to the skhisma. 2^(1/614) is a good EDO approximation of all three of these intervals. P^(1/5) can be factored as 2^(-19/5) * 3^(12/5), so the Bach/wohltemperirt tempered "5th" of (3/2) / P^(1/5) can be factored as 2^(14/5) * 3^-(7/5) . The lowest-integer ratio that comes close to it is 184/123, and 2395/1601 is much closer. The (4/3)^(1/30) version of moria can be factored as 2^(1/15) * 3^-(1/30) . If the exponents of the Bach/wohltemperirt "5th" are multiplied so that its denominators match these, that interval is expressed as 2^(42/15) * 3^-(42/30), which therefore shows that it is equal to exactly 42 of these morias, or 4:3 "+" 12 morias. [Note that there is another type of moria which is 2^(1/72) ]. P^(1/4) can be factored as 2^(-19/4) * 3^3, so the Werckmeister III tempered "5th" of (3/2) / P^(1/4) can be factored as 2^(15/4) * 3^-2 . It is very close to the 50-EDO "5th" of 2^(29/50) [a more exact figure: 2^(29.00374993/50) ], which was pointed out by Woolhouse as being nearly identical with his "optimal" 7/26-comma meantone.
