Oh yeah- thanks, Dave Hill, for mentioning 7:9:11. I almost forgot! The
coolest one of all!

Anyone who has heard Venusian Cataclysms knows about the 7:9:11 (right, Paul?)

One of my very favorite 12-tET [single octave] chords is the 1-3-#5-7
(@3+3+b3), which to my ear[s] 'needs' a >15/8 (or 13/7) major seventh to
retain its (personally desirable) 12-tET character... So I prefer a
+19/15+5/4 for the augmented triad with a +6/5 on top (+19/15+5/4+6/5 @ 1/1,
19/15, 19/12, 19/10).
