Could someone point me to the current consensus (you know what I mean,
the Dave K. Gene etc. consensus) note names and their corresponding
ascii glyphs for 31-tet again?

thanks,

--Dan Stearns

hi dan.

i didn't know there was such a thing. 31-equal can of course be
notated conventionally, using double sharps and double flats and a
meantone genesis. if you meant the 72-equal consensus, gene was not
involved, but joseph, dave, and i have been using

] = 1/4-tone high
> = 1/6-tone high
^ = 1/12-tone high
v = 1/12-tone low
< = 1/6-tone low
[ = 1/4-tone low

so what did you mean?

I don't know if there is such a consensus. Here's a suggestion. I
understand it is pretty standard except for the choice of symbols for
half-sharp and half-flat, which are intended to be replaced with the
Sims "quarter-tone" symbols on a score.

Hmm, I thought that Dave Keenan's note naming scheme used Fokker's as
a starting or reference point--perhaps I'm confused, or perhaps it did
but as applied to 72-tet?

Okay, I guess what I had in mind was the 11-limit 72 notation, and 31
as a subset of this--in other words let the 7/72 generator be
commensurate with the 3/31.

This would be one way to use consistent ETs to spell other
inconsistent ETs--for example, 20-tet where 17/31 is commensurate with
11/20, etc.

See what I'm getting at?

That's incompatible with the system you want to adapt, it seems to me.
The "right" semitone to use should be h31(2187/2048) = 2, which goes nicely with h31(33/32) = h31(64/63) = 1. 16/15 or 15/14 would then
be a #].

Yes. Tradition and ... Melodically, the symbols beg to be read as
"half-sharp" and "half-flat" and 32:33 functions as such far more
often than 63:64. Neutral thirds get spelled the same as in 72-tET.

That means you are telling people coming from 72-et who are used to this having an 11-limit meaning that it now functions as 64/63. I think life would be a lot simpler for such people (and any theoretical people used to its use in JI, for that matter) if we kept on telling them that G-F< was a 7/4 interval, which is what they would be used to seeing. The idea as I see it is to get the notations to agree as much as possible.

well, now, aren't you clever?! :)

i see what you're getting at . . . sort of,
but don't really grasp the whole thing.

i did an analysis of these constructions you mentioned
in your post, giving edo degrees, cents, and notations.

(. . . and for once, i'm caving in and using the
72edo "standard" notation!)

(use "expand message" mode in Yahoo web interface)

legend:

lower raise

b # semitone = 100 cents
] [ 1/4-tone = 50 cents
< > 1/6-tone = 33&1/3 cents
v ^ 1/12-tone = 16&2/3 cents

on the far right, i also show the nearest semitone in
cents and the additional correction in cents, to help
make the 72edo notation clearer.

so, the +16th and -15th 31edo generators give the same 31edo note,

72edo pitches:

2^(39/72) = 650 cents = G] and
2^(40/72) = 666&2/3 cents = G< .

so, are you talking about choosing one of those to notate
2^(17/31) and thus 2^(11/20) ? or the other way around,
using 2^(17/31) to notate the two 72edo pitches and 2^(11/20) ?

the +10 and -10 generators in the 20edo "meantone-like"
chain are both 600 cents in 20edo, giving a closed
"circle of 5ths", altho the "5th" is 660 cents, not
exactly what i'd call a "recognizable 5th".

31edo also inconsistently to 20edo: +10 meantone generators
is 2^(15/31) = 580&20/31 cents = F# , and -10 meantone generators
is 2^(16/31) = 619&11/31 cents = Gb .

here i illustrate the better of the two 72edo notations
with note-names. notice that it is a 9-tone repeating
system in the notation. but both 72edo notations are
inconsistent with the 20edo "meantone" chain.

i see that this 20edo "circle of 5ths" has cent values
that are always between the 2^(17/31) mapping and the
2^(40/72) mapping. so you've gotten two close approximations
on either side of it.

but what are you trying to do with the notation?

That's how George's Sag{1,2}it{1,2}al notation works. As the 31-equal
steps are notated using the quartertone symbols, the equivalent from the
house-standard ASCII notation would be [] as originally suggested.

I use + and t for half sharps and flats, because they're similar to the
Tartini/Fokker, and nothing like any of the symbols for 72=.

****Monz, I really appreciate your doing this, *especially* since I
know you didn't want to. In a way, it was like my converting from my
beloved F-C-G Blackjack "key" and all my charts, diagrams, etc., etc.

But, I *do* believe, in the interest of communication, we need to
stick to the "standards" that we have developed together.

I note that some of the people on this list with *scientific*
backgrounds have no trouble adopting "community standards." I think
science may work a bit like that, but I may be wrong....

This is great work Monz!

Now try centering them both on D, and notice that [] and <> are the
same thing in 31-tET and v^ has no effect in 31-tET, and they should
agree a lot better than they seem to in the above table. In fact they
should agree totally.

Hi Joe,

What I had in mind was using consistent temperaments to spell
inconsistent temperaments by looking at different adjacent fraction
series--for instance, here's the 20-tet example I gave:

4 1 5 6 11 17
--, --, --, --, --, --, ...
7 2 9 11 20 31

By using 31-tet as a template you could either spell say 11 or 20
traditionally--with multiple sharps and flats, or by using some other
scheme--say Fokker's or the 31 out of 72:

2 1 3 4 7
--, --, --, --, --, ...
21 10 31 41 72

See what I'm getting at now?

take care,

--Dan Stearns
