Hi all
Is there any terms for a series of four tones filling in the interval of 600 cent or tritone?

Unlikely. Since two adjacent three-quarter tones above the tonic define Bayati maqams, probably a coinage along that name would be in order - Hyperbayati Pentachord, how's that? Unless the scale continues this way; then 8-equal pentachord should do.

Hi
No , Hyperbayati Pentachord is not what I asked.
Something acting like "tetrachord for 4 note in a 500 cent limitation"

Hm, I'm not quite clear on what your asking, then. Of course, "tone" can mean an interval (in the vicinity of 200 cent) or a souding entity. If you refer to [sounding entity], four of them within 500 cent are simply a fourth, and within 600 cent (your original question) an augmented fourth, or "tritone" (with "tone"="interval") in its most literal meaning.

Since you know that, I assumed you wanted to squish in an extra [sounding entity] (and that you thought of more or less equal divisions outside a diatonic context, where it would simply be a diminished fifth).
