==Comparison with circle of fifths== A key difference between the chromatic circle and the [[circle of fifths]] is that the former is truly a continuous space: every point on the circle corresponds to a conceivable [[pitch class]], and every conceivable pitch class corresponds to a point on the circle. By contrast, the circle of fifths is fundamentally a ''discrete'' structure, and there is no obvious way to assign pitch classes to each of its points.
