Comments

The approximate value of 260.7 Hz for the C corresponds to 16/27 * 440 Hz. The frequencies correspond to the ratios [1/1, 9/8, 81/64, 4/3, 3/2, 27/16, 243/128, 2/1].

A shruti can be interpreted as the smallest interval of pitch the ear can detect and a singer or musical instrument can produce, and accordingly the 'Grama' system divides an octave into 22 parts.
The scale involves 256/243, 25/24 and 81/80 as fractions.
Note that ((81/80)^10) * ((256/243)^7) * ((25/24)^5) = 2.
The frequencies correspond to the ratios [1/1, 256/243, 16/15, 10/9, 9/8, 32/27, 6/5, 5/4, 81/64, 4/3, 27/20, 45/32, 729/512, 3/2, 128/81, 8/5, 5/3, 27/16, 16/9, 9/5, 15/8, 243/128, 2/1].
The start is A-equivalent note = 440 Hz. The initial term (rounded frequency of C-equivalent note) is calculated as (16/27) * 440 Hz = 260.7 Hz.

Comments

Pythagorean tuning is a form of tuning produced by repeated stacking of the perfect fifth, which has the frequency ratio of 3:2. A circle of 12 perfect fifths is approximately equal to the tuning system predominantly in use in the world today. If the perfect fifth is stacked 12 times and the resulting sequence is octave-reduced, then this divides the octave into 5 chromatic semitones which are equal to 2187/2048 (A229948), and 7 diatonic semitones which are equal to 256/243 (A229943). Diatonic semitones are those which are derived from a circle of 7 perfect fifths, the diatonic scale, and 5 chromatic semitones are a byproduct of an addition of 5 more perfect fifths, that is, another rotation, to the scale.
