  Derived row - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rows may derived from a sub-set of any number of pitch classes that is a divisor of 12, the most common being the first three pitches or a trichord.
For example, since a segment may be equivalent to the generating segment inverted and transposed, say, 6 semitones, when the entire row is inverted and transposed six semitones the generating segment will now consist of the pitch classes of the derived segment.
O represents the original trichord, RI, retrograde and inversion, R retrograde, and I inversion.

Trichords are sets of 3 notes, tetrachords are sets of 4 notes, and pentachords are sets of 5 notes.
A set is a defined as a trichord when the next (4th) note is impossible to predict out of multiple choices, as in the Sikah and Mustaar trichords for example.
It a variant of the Sikah trichord, with the 2nd note raised by a 1/2 tone.

 TELECOM STORIES
TriChord says in company materials that while cameras are valuable, the data provided by sensors is not affected by fog, rain, snow or other problems that can compromise camera pictures.
TriChord’s sensors use wireless and wired connectivity and the company is also working with the Virginia Department of Transportation to use information from that agency’s embedded network, sharing data with each other.
TriChord is also working with Maryland traffic officials to add sensors on that state’s portion of the Beltway and possibly interface with the network of in-place sensors and cameras there.

 Times Community Newspapers - Business - 07/02/2003 - Trichord taking mystery out of road travel times   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Trichord deploys sensors, collects average speed information and fuses that data into information that can be used by retailers to provide traveler information to the public, to commuters, to tourists.
Trichord's first product was the Traffic Viewer, intended mainly for television and radio stations so that they take the information gleaned from sensors and disseminate it through traffic reports.
Trichord's second product is the sensors' data stream, which it provides to different retail outlets.

 Hifi Choice - Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Trichord has for a long time sold a re-engineered version called the Genesis, originally based on the PD-S504 and later the PD-S505, whose key selling point was an uprated master clock and improved output stage.
The Trichord Revelation is essentially an enhanced Genesis, and Genesis owners can upgrade to the full Revelation spec for the difference in retail prices (currently £250).
The display is now synchronised to the master clock to reduce interference, which Trichord claims has had a strong impact on detail resolving ability.

 Lesson 1 for "Form & Analysis"
Consider, for example, the first interval of Webern's row: G ascending a M3 to B. The inversion could be produced in two ways: (1) G descending a M3 to Eb, or (2) G ascending a m6 to Eb.
Observe that inversions of trichord (a) relocate the smaller interval (which had been at the top) to the bottom of the texture.
Squish trichord (a) PRIME together and play all of its pitches simultaneously, that is, as a chord.

 Twelve-Tone Techniques   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Derived series - a row composed of either trichords or tetrachords, all of which are from the same class.
The generators, themselves, often are the first trichord of permutations within the magic square.
As with derived series, this shows that the most important aspect of twelve-tone technique is not the endless cycling through a row but, rather, the emphasis that can be placed on unique features of the row.

 Trichord Clock   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
It is widely agreed that the reason that so many manufactures do this is because if a better clock were fitted, it would pitch their units against much more expensive equipment, effectively pricing it out of the major sales area.
The standard crystal is replaced with a complete circuit including on board regulator and the result is that the timing pulse is much more accurate (Trichord Clock 4 - 0.0005%).
Trichord Research, or a Trichord Research Dealer will undertake to fit 'Clock 4' or 'Clock 4 Systems' upon request.

Trichord was among the first independents to take a standard commercial CD player, in this case from Pioneer, and add proprietary improvements to improve the sound.
The result is, or should be, a player to satisfy the audiophile at a price otherwise unattainable to a specialist producer.
So far, however, it is Trichord that has been able to offer a more flexible improvement with two levels of enhancement.

 NOVACommute.com - Traveler Information for Public Sector Agencies
The centerpiece of the Trichord Traffic Viewer™ is a "congestion map" - a detailed map of the Washington DC region that shows "at a glance," by color-coding road segments, how fast traffic is moving.
The Trichord Traffic Viewer™ was developed with the aid of some of the most experienced traffic reporters in the country, and can be used in a "producer / reporter" relationship - a producer can enter information, which is immediately available to all reporters in a given user group.
This interactivity is particularly useful in the case of road and lane closures, which could be due to construction, a traffic accident, or a structure fire adjacent to the roadway.

The Trichord can be bought with or without a built-in amplifier, and plugs straight into the edge connector at the rear of the computer.
Four programs are provided on tape: 'S' for the Trichord's own programmed sound effects, 'D' and 'G' for producing and utilising user sound effects and a music program called 'M'.
It's fairly technical stuff and surely really intended for more advanced micro-users who are used to converting from binary code to decimal while brushing their teeth in the morning.

Plutarch says that Olympus and Terpander used but three strings to accompany their recitation.
As the four strings led to seven and eight by doubling the tetrachord, so the trichord is connected with the hexachord or six-stringed lyre depicted on so many archaic Greek vases.
We cannot insist on the accuracy of this representation, the vase painters being little mindful of the complete expression of details; yet we may suppose their tendency would be rather to imitate than to invent a number.

 Music and the Major Arcana
The Trichord System selects five tones (with repetition) from a trichord, or scale of three tones, e.g.
If a trump's dice roll is M-N (written so that N is greater than or equal to M), then choose M-1 of the lowest tone (of the trichord), N-M of the middle tone, and 6-N of the highest tone.
Alternately (Trichord), since there are exactly two Xs, two different pitches could be assigned to them, so Victory might be CECCGCC and Love might be CCBACCC.
