[[TAMNAMS]] suggests the temperament-agnostic name '''smitonic''' ''smy-TON-ik'' /smaɪˈtɒnɪk/ for this scale. The name is derived from 'sharp minor third', since the central range for the dark generator (320¢ to 333.3¢) is significantly sharp of [[6/5]] (just minor 3rd, 315.6¢). | [[TAMNAMS]] suggests the temperament-agnostic name '''smitonic''' ''smy-TON-ik'' /smaɪˈtɒnɪk/ for this scale.

Hyposoft smitonic tunings (3:2 to 2:1) are characterized by generators that are a supraminor 3rd, between 327¢ and 333¢. By analogy of parasoft tunings being called "meantone smitonic", these tunings can be considered "[[Gentle region|neogothic]] smitonic" or "[[archy]] smitonic". | Hyposoft smitonic tunings (3:2 to 2:1) are characterized by generators that are a supraminor 3rd, between 327¢ and 333¢.

===Hypohard tunings=== | ===Hypohard tunings=== | ||
Hypohard smitonic tunings (2:1 to 3:1) have generators between 320¢ and 327¢. The major 1-mosstep, or large step, tends to approximate [[8/7]] (231¢) and the major 3-mosstep tends to approximate [[11/8]] (551¢). [[26edo]] approximates these two intervals very well. These JI approximations are associated with [[orgone]] temperament. | Hypohard smitonic tunings (2:1 to 3:1) have generators between 320¢ and 327¢.
