I'm writing a series of pieces in 46-tet on a dare, but I've never used it before. If someone could provide a quick crash course, it would be really helpful. ...

Star, in its 46-et incarnation is: [3, 12, 15, 24, 27, 34, 39, 46]. Nova in its 46-et incarnation is [5, 12, 15, 24, 27, 34, 39, 46]. If we detemper these to...

By "sensi notation", I mean I give them in terms of generator steps of 17 out of 46. The root of the chord can be anywhere. Major triad 0-7-9 Minor triad 0-2-9...
... OK, so 1200 cent period and a generator of 696.88 cents? Then you need 1, 4, 10 generators to reach 3/2, 5/4, 7/4 (e.g. 7/4 = 969 cents ~= 10*696.88 mod...
