Below is a comparison between the first 63 harmonics and the intervals of 12-tone equal temperament (12tET), transposed into the span of one octave. Tinted fields highlight differences greater than 5 cents (1/20th of a semitone), which is the human ear's "just noticeable difference" for notes played one after the other (smaller differences are noticeable with notes played simultaneously).

Computed by:

cents error, positive = frac(frac[log2(harmonic)]*12)*100

cents error, negative = (cents error, positive) - 100, if (cents error, positive) > 50
