'''Deneb''' is a [[tritave]]-repeating [[rank-2 temperament]] that tempers out the comma 6655/6561 in the 3.5.11 subgroup, the amount by which 4 [[11/9]]'s exceed [[11/5]]. Having a generator of ~11/9, it possesses [[MOS scale]]s of the families 1L 4s<3/1>, 5L 1s<3/1>, 6L 5s<3/1>, and 11L 6s<3/1>. Good tunings for this temperament are [[11edt]], [[17edt]], [[28edt]], [[39edt]] and [[45edt]].

== Harmony ==
Deneb does not have sevens and as such the most simple approach to no-twos harmony (using the chord 3:5:7) does not work. Due to its approximation of 11/9 and 11/5, the otonal chord 5:9:11 and its utonal inversion 45:55:99 is well-represented. The utonal chord in particular sounds surprisingly consonant for a no-twos chord, while the otonal chord sounds more strained but still somewhat consonant.
