Sorry but I'm still studying normal harmonic theory.

Going by the JI scale alone, I find that the choice between 16/9 and 9/5 for the 7th depends on what note in the scale the chord is rooted on, since some Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:59:17 GMT Jacques Dudon http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85271 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85271 13:16:20 (without 11) share many recurrent series , such as Iph (= 2/ Phi) : 55:68:84:104:128:160 (but 11 will make friends with 55, if not with 89 !)

Well I'd prefer 1/1 5/4 3/2 5/2 by far :) 550/441 sounds like an out of tune 5/4 to me in the chord you just gave.

I'm not prioritizing melodic consonance over harmonic consonance. I am Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:22:18 GMT Ozan Yarman http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85267 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85267 Have you tried the chord 882:1100:1323:2205 In Yarman-36c? The ratios are: 1/1 550/441 3/2 5/2 Tell me if what you hear is consonant or not. Now compare it Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:07:56 GMT Ozan Yarman http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85266 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85266 ✩ ✩ ✩ www.ozanyarman.com ... Modulating to other keys or transposing to different ahenks (diapasons). ... Yes. We are looking for something in between.

Very nice piece :) If I understand correctly you use the 75/64 in a minor triad aswell as 1/1 75/64 3/2? I like that minor triad too, as 8/5 15/8 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 04:23:36 GMT Marcel de Velde http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85263 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85263 Hi Oz, O Marcel, ... Well if you're looking to use all fifths as pure fifths (and fourths as pure fourths) in your scale then you must be modulating. If you're Thu, 19 Nov 2009 03:28:05 GMT Ozan Yarman http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85262 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85262 O Marcel, 16/9 should be in place of 9/5, because we want a "4:3" between that and 4/3. Your scale seems rigid enough, except: 1. There is an ugly 56:75 (506 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:30:28 GMT Marcel de Velde http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85261 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/85261 Hi Oz, These are some very high ratios. How do you come by these? By ear? Umm, I am not exactly concerned with the overtone series after 5/4 ...
