Errm... After having a closer look at the diagrams, I think not. The diagram axes are fifth, major third and harmonic seventh: I see no hint that the easiest modulation steps are semitone and tritone. The dimension of the whole diagram has no importance in this aspect - in ET12, you probably can find chord systems with easiest modulation steps 4 and 3 (I already found one with 4). Or maybe there is a way of looking at the diagrams I havn't found yet? To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: tuning-math-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Your use of Yahoo!
