A ''haṅier'' (literally 'stepping') consists of a scale (a choice of pitches relative to the tonic) plus which subsets to emphasize, either a set of two ''buri'' (pentachords or hexachords) or a ''pezum'' (a pentatonic subset where 1\24 is not used as a step).

Semaphore[9]-based. The tuning is 24edo like in Arabic theory, but this is a very different application of 24edo. 19edo tuning may also be used.

A haṅier (literally 'stepping') consists of a scale (a choice of pitches relative to the tonic) plus which subsets to emphasize, either a set of two buri (pentachords or hexachords) or a pezum (a pentatonic subset where 1\24 is not used as a step).

The six possible pentachords: 4411 4141 4114 1441 1414 1144
