I spent a few moments yesterday closely examining Partch's "One
Footed-Bride" diagram of comparative consonance and I can report that
Paul Erlich was absolutely correct when he stated that the relative
consonance is inversely proportional to the ODD NUMBER LIMIT (OL) of
the ratio when the highest OL is between 3 and 11 is and set equal to
the minimum when the OL is 13 or greater. Pretty simple!
