[[5edo]] is the smallest xenharmonic system, as 1edo, 2edo, 3edo and 4edo are all subsets of [[12edo]].


The most notable 5th-octave family is [[limmic temperaments]] – [[tempering out]] [[256/243]] and associates 3\5 to [[3/2]] as well as 1\5 to [[9/8]], producing temperaments like [[blackwood]]. Equally notable among small equal divisions are the [[Cloudy clan|cloudy temperaments]] – identifying [[8/7]] with one step of 5edo.

== Slendrismic ==
Slendroschismic tempers out the [[slendroschisma]]. In this temperament, the period (1\5) is given a very accurate interpretation of [[147/128]] = ([[3/2]])/([[8/7]])<sup>2</sup> = ([[8/7]])⋅([[1029/1024|S7/S8]]), which is a significant interval as it is the "harmonic 5edostep" in that it is a [[rooted]] (/2<sup>''n''</sup>) interval that approximates 1\5 very well. The generator is [[1029/1024]], the difference between [[8/7]] and [[147/128]] and therefore between 3/2 and (8/7)<sup>3</sup>. The temperament is named for the very "slender" generator as well as as a reference on [[slendric]]. One can consider this as a microtemperament counterpart to [[cloudy]], which equates them.

In slendrismic, the period (1\5) is given a very accurate interpretation of [[147/128]] = ([[3/2]])/([[8/7]])<sup>2</sup> = [[8/7]] * [[1029/1024|S7/S8]], which is a significant interval as it is the "harmonic 5edostep" in that it's a [[rooted]] (/2^n) interval that approximates 1\5 very well. The generator is [[1029/1024]], the difference between [[8/7]] and [[147/128]] and therefore between 3/2 and (8/7)<sup>3</sup>. The temperament is named for the very "slender" generator as well as as a pun on "[[slendric]]" (which it shouldn't be confused with). One can consider this as a microtemperament counterpart to [[cloudy]], which equates them.
A possible extension to the full 7-limit is given by the [[hemipental]] temperament.

Thunderclysmic is a weak extension of slendrismic (above), [[rainy]] and [[cata]], with a generator of a slightly sharp ~6/5 (befitting of any [[kleismic]] temperament), three of which making [[26/15]]~[[19/11]]. More interesting though is that the period is [[5edo|1\5]]; slendrismic gives this a very accurate interpretation of [[147/128]] = ([[3/2]])/([[8/7]])<sup>2</sup> = [[8/7]] * [[1029/1024|S7/S8]] which is a significant interval as it is the "harmonic 5edostep" (in that it's a [[rooted]] (/2^n) interval in the 2.3.7 subgroup that approximates 1\5 very well). Thunderclysmic gives a wealth of interpretations to [[5edo]] intervals, which are available everywhere due to 1\5 = 240{{cent}} being the period of Thunderclysmic. In fact, Thunderclysmic combines many convergents and semiconvergents to intervals of [[5edo]] into a single, high-limit temperament:

== Quint ==
== Obscenity ==
Quint preserves the 5-limit mapping of 5edo, and harmonic 7 is mapped to an independent generator. As harmonic 7 is way more accurately approximated than 5 by 5edo, this temperament provides little improvement to 5edo's 7-limit tuning, so in what way this temperament is useful remains unexplained. It would make much more sense to, for example, preserve the 2.3.7-subgroup structure of 5edo and give prime 5 an indepedent generator instead, which is exactly what [[blacksmith]] does.  
Obscenity maps [[32/21]] to 3\5 and was named in subtle reference to [[Syntonic–chromatic equivalence continuum#Absurdity (5-limit)|absurdity]] as a kind of septal (2.3.7) analog to it. It tempers out the obsceniton, 4194304/4084101.
