... I think I'll propose "quark" as the name for 1/4-comma. In 1/4-comma meantone, the fifth is flat by a quarter comma, a quar c, or quark. In 441-et, the...

Johnny-- This makes sense. 1200-et is indeed accurate enough for any acoustic situation (some might say overkill, since you could probably get away with the...

... You are raising 16/9 by 225/224 to get 25/14, but that means you are sharp by a septimal kleisma of the subdominant. This means you are going to get into...
... I took the list of all 11-limit pairwise consonant tetrads in 72-et, and checked for the smallest "Tymoczko distance" to this chord. Here Tymoczko distance...
... Yes. Garibaldi (a.k.a. 7-limit schismic) would be more precise than meantone and the notation problem is solved by adding the single pair of sagittal...
... That looks pretty practical to me. You can extend to the 11-limit by adding 385/384 as a comma, and then F// is your 11/8. C-D-E\-F//-G-Bb\ is the complete...
