Scale Tempered



Scale Tempered
You decide to circumvent the tyranny of the twelve even-tempered semitone musical scale of Western civilizatio?

You decide to circumvent the tyranny of the twelve even-tempered semitone musical scale of Western civilization by introducing your own 17 tone scale to cover the octave in equal percentage steps. How close can you get to the interval which in Western music is called the “fourth (1.333)”? (Express your answer as a percentage deviation of the upper note from the just value, keeping the sign and rounding it off to the nearest tenth of a percent.)

12 tone scale:
● Just intonation of a forth interval is 4/3 = 1.333333333 decimal ratio equivalent to 498.044999 cent.
Equal temperament interval of a forth is 2^(5/12) = 1.334839854 decimal ratio equivalent to 500.000000 cent.

17 tone scale:
Interval of 2^(6/17) = 1.277161684 decimal ratio equivalent to 423.529412 cent.
● Interval of 2^(7/17) = 1.330312058 decimal ratio equivalent to 494.117647 cent.
Interval of 2^(8/17) = 1.385674339 decimal ratio equivalent to 564.705882 cent.

Help: Conversion of Intervals – ¢ = cent

PS: The posters babybeast, MNO, and 陈炜烨 must have connections, asking the same words and wanting to introduce an own 17 tone scale system:

Excerpt: Ariadne musica is a collection of organ music by Johann Caspar Ferdinand Fischer , first published in 1702. The main part of the collection is a cycle of 20 preludes and fugues in different keys , so Ariadne musica is considered an important precursor to Johann Sebastian Bach ‘s Well-Tempered Clavier , which has a similar structure.The title refers to the Greek myth in which Theseus is able to find his way out of Minotaur ‘s labyrinth using a ball of thread Ariadne , daughter of King Minos of Crete , gave him. Similarly, the music in the collection can be said to guide the listener through a labyrinth of keys. Fischer also used Greek mythology to name the pieces in another large scale music collection of his, Musikalischer Parnassus .The first edition of Ariadne musica was made in 1702 in Schlackenwerth . The work was reprinted several times during Fischer’s life. The original print mentioned by Johann Gottfried Walther in Musicalisches Lexicon is now lost, but a manuscript copy survives.Pieces 20 preludes and fugues:5 ricercars on chorale melodies, each connected with a specific catholic event:All pieces are quite short, including a few really brief fugues (the 7 bar A minor fugue being the shortest). Most are in common time , with a few exceptions (most notably the E Dorian fugue which is in 12/8). The preludes vary from pieces based on short simplistic toccata -like passages over long sustained chords (as in, for example, the C major and G major ones) to slightly more complex works with brief imitative passages like this one, from the end of the E-flat major prelude:The fugues are all in four voices, except the A-flat major one which is a five voice fugue. Some are loosely connected thematically to the accompanying preludes.The ricercars all feature themes
