THE "IN TUNE" CHORDS OF JUST INTONATION
In the following chords the notes of equal temperament are considered to be
“O" (zero) pitch. All of the IN TUNE chords are based on the root "C* which
is equal tempered “O" pitch. Cents +X, or -X indicates the cents difference
necessary to be IN TUNE from the equal tempered "0" pitch.
Regardless of the frequency of the starting point the structure of the chord
remains constant. Therefore, the pitches of the notes shown here would
occur on each of the twelve equal tempered roots...only the frequencies
would be different.
