There are many conceivable ways to map [[28edo]] onto the [[Lumatone]] keyboard. However, as it has multiple small rings of 5ths, the [[Standard Lumatone mapping for Pythagorean]] is not one of them. Instead, the most diatonic-like mapping is the [[whitewood]] one.

== Whitewood ==
The [[Whitewood]] mapping is perhaps the most diatonic-like mapping that covers all notes.

Since the 5th harmonic is easily the best tuned interval, the [[Wuerschmidt]] mapping is a good way to maximise your range and make consonant chords easy to reach.  
== Würschmidt ==
Since the 5th harmonic is easily the best tuned interval, the [[Würschmidt]] mapping is a good way to maximise your range (a bit over eight octaves, nearly level) and make consonant chords easy to reach.

== Bryan Deister's layout (Machine) ==
 
[[Bryan Deister]] has used a layout for [[28edo]] that was inspired by the layout for [[29edo]] (rather than being made for any specific temperament), as demonstrated in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/--BIQKJ9uvI ''minuet in 28edo''] (2025). The right-moving generator is a somewhat sharp Pythagorean whole tone (~[[9/8]], or near-just [[17/15]], 5\28). The up-moving generator is an almost-just tridecimal supraminor second (~[[14/13]], 3\28).  The range is a bit over five octaves, with octaves alternating near/far and middle with an overall small upwards slant. Although this layout was not designed for any particular temperament, it so happens that the right-moving generator matches [[Machine]].
