Quarter-comma meantone each kind, a perfect fifth of meantone contains four diatonic and three chromatic semitones, and an octave seven diatonic and five chromatic semitones, it follows that: Thus, in Pythagorean tuning, where sequences of just fifths (frequency ratio 3:2) and octaves are used to produce the other intervals, a whole tone is and a major third is An interval of a seventeenth, consisting of sixteen diatonic and twelve chromatic semitones, such as the interval from D to F, can be equivalently obtained using either This large interval of a seventeenth contains staff positions. In Pythagorean tuning, the size of a seventeenth
