I've removed this:
- A minor chord in just intonation corresponds to a pitch ratios of 14:12:10 (7.5:6:5, for comparison with the major chord)
The first bit is probably a typo which I've corrected (should be 15:12:10), but the bit in brackets I don't understand - I've scratched my head quite a bit over it, but can't get anything from it. I daresay it can go back in if its clarified, but as it stood, I don't think it was very helpful. --Camembert
- Yah, 14 is a typo. However, the ratio 15:12:10 is a little more than an octave higher than the ratio given for the major chord, 6:5:4.Hyacinth 19:13, 8 Jan 2004 (UTC)

- Well, it's all relative, isn't it: I mean, you can have a 6:5:4 chord three octaves above middle C or three octaves below - you don't need to change the numbers, all the matters is that they're in the right ratio. But I know what you mean - for the benefit of comparing numbers it might, I suppose, be useful to mention that 15:12:10 could also be "spelled" 6:4.8:4 (which is analogous to 6:5:4 for the major triad). --Camembert

[edit] A bit confused
Can it be said that a minor chord is constructed upon a minor scale? --Nathanael Bar-Aur L. 23:19, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Merge
Nobody has commented on the merge tag here and at major chord. I oppose a merge because I think it will be more confusing to link to a merged page. There is already a page that discusses both, as well as their diminished and augmented brethren, at Triad (music), but I think it is useful to have separate pages for each of those as well.

[edit] WHAT???
"The minor chord resembles the major chord except that it has a minor third with a major third on top, while a major chord has a major third with a minor third on top." Articles on Quantum Mechanics are less convoluted then this one. Bogger (talk) 14:15, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
