Theory

Carlos provided the tuning of 35.1 ¢[1][2]. Based on her work, Dave Benson optimized the temperament for 3/2, 5/4, and 6/5, such that the tuning divides the octave in

[math]\displaystyle{ \displaystyle \frac{20^2 + 11^2 + 9^2}{20\log_2(3/2) + 11\log_2(5/4) + 9\log_2(6/5)} ≃ 34.189454 }[/math]

equal steps and the fifth in 19.999549 equal steps of 35.0985422804 ¢ each. It is thus very close to the equal division of the just perfect fifth into twenty parts of 35.0978 ¢ each (20edf), which has been oft-misquoted as actually being Wendy Carlos's gamma scale.

Carlos Gamma is closely related to the gammic temperament.

Lookalikes: 34edo, 54edt, 96ed7, 171edo

The first steps up to two perfect fifths should give a feeling of the granularity of this system…
