A diatonic scale may be derived from this; semitonus can be derived to be 243:256 by fitting tonus as many times as possible into a diatessaron and finding out what ratio remains. Tonus times tonus times semitonus equals diatessaron: do–re–mi–fa (6:8). Fa to sol is tonus (8:9). Sol to do’ is another diatessaron: sol–la–si–do’ = tonus times tonus times semitonus = do–re–mi–fa transposed to sol (9:12). 384:432:486:512:576:648:729:786::do:re:mi:fa:sol:la:si:do’.)"
