In numerically specified music, it should not surprize you that any
number of notes per octave can be in a tune. Beginners start at
about five notes per octave, though. One option for a ratio iz six
notes away from your tonic first note. At least four options for a
sixth exist. The missing one seems to be 21:13. Strangely, among the
musical ratios 22:13 is there. Maybe that iz an error.

Verbose Musical Ratios:

5:3 Major Sixth
8:5 Minor Sixth
13:8 Tridecimal Neutral Sixth
34:21 Supraminor Sixth

It looks to me like Fibonacci haz a near monopoly on the ratio that
iz six tones away from your reference in music: 1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34
