m replaced quasitemp with superkleismic, since it's generated by 6/5 like myna and demonstrates the keemic equivalence better; also I believe it to be more known than quasitemp

'''Myna''' is a [[rank-2]] [[temperament]] that is [[generator|generated]] by a flattened minor third of [[6/5]], so that seven generators reach [[7/4]], nine reach [[5/4]] and ten reach [[3/2]]. It can be thought of in terms of a series of equidistances between thirds, that is, making [[7/6]] - 6/5 - [[49/40]] - [[5/4]] - [[9/7]] all equidistant (the distances between which are [[36/35]], [[49/48]], and [[50/49]]), or otherwise tuning the pental thirds outwards so that the chroma between them ([[25/24]]) is twice the size of the interval between the pental and septimal thirds, 36/35. This is one of two major options for how to organize septimal harmony in [[EDO]]s of medium size - the other one being [[keemic temperaments]], such as [[superkleismic]], where the gap between 6/5 and 5/4 is compressed to equal that between 7/6 and 6/5 instead of widened to equal twice it. Both have their characteristic sets of damage, but myna leaves space for an exact neutral third in between 6/5 and 5/4; [[11-limit]] myna then arises from equating this neutral third to [[11/9]] and 13-limit myna adds the interpretation of [[16/13]] to it as well.

'''Myna''' is a [[rank-2]] [[regular temperament|temperament]] that is [[generator|generated]] by a flattened minor third of [[~]][[6/5]], so that seven generators reach [[7/4]], nine reach [[5/4]] and ten reach [[3/2]]. It can be thought of in terms of a series of equidistances between thirds, that is, making [[8/7]]–[[7/6]]–6/5–[[49/40]]–[[5/4]]–[[9/7]]–[[21/16]] all equidistant (the distances between which are [[36/35]], [[49/48]], and [[50/49]]), or otherwise tuning the pental thirds outwards so that the chroma between them ([[25/24]]) is twice the size of the interval between the pental and septimal thirds, 36/35. This is one of two major options for how the thirds are organized in [[edo]]s of medium size – the other one being [[keemic temperaments]], such as [[superkleismic]], where the gap between 6/5 and 5/4 is compressed to equal that between 7/6 and 6/5 instead of widened to equal twice it. In either case, by tempering the septimal dieses together, there is an exact neutral third in between 6/5 and 5/4. [[11-limit]] myna then arises from equating this neutral third to [[11/9]] and 13-limit myna adds the interpretation of [[16/13]] to it as well.


It can be described as the 27 & 31 temperament; [[27edo]] and [[31edo]] represent natural endpoints of its tuning range, and 27+31 = [[58edo]] and 58+31 = [[89edo]] are very good tunings. In terms of [[commas]], the most characteristic comma that myna [[tempering out|tempers out]] is [[126/125]], the starling comma, so that two generators reach [[10/7]] and four reach the distinctive 36/35[[~]]50/49 chroma. Additionally, {{S|6/S7}} = [[1728/1715]], the orwellisma, is tempered out to equate 36/35 with 49/48, and so is [[2401/2400]], the breedsma, to equate 49/48 and 50/49 (and find a neutral third at 49/40). In the 11-limit, [[243/242]], [[441/440]], and [[540/539]] are tempered out; in the 13-limit, [[144/143]] and [[352/351]] are tempered out.
[[27edo|27e-edo]] and [[31edo]] represent natural endpoints of myna's tuning range, and 27 + 31 = [[58edo]] and 58 + 31 = [[89edo]] are very good tunings. In terms of [[commas]], the most characteristic comma that myna [[tempering out|tempers out]] is [[126/125]], the starling comma, so that two generators reach [[10/7]] and four reach the distinctive 36/35~50/49 chroma. Additionally, [[1728/1715]] ([[S-expression|S6/S7]]), the orwellisma, is tempered out to equate 36/35 with 49/48, and so is [[2401/2400]], the breedsma, to equate 49/48 and 50/49 (and find a neutral third at 49/40~60/49). In the 11-limit, [[176/175]], [[243/242]], [[441/440]], and [[540/539]] are tempered out; in the 13-limit, [[144/143]] and [[352/351]] are additionally tempered out.

Myna is a rank-2 temperament that is generated by a flattened minor third of ~6/5, so that seven generators reach 7/4, nine reach 5/4 and ten reach 3/2. It can be thought of in terms of a series of equidistances between thirds, that is, making 8/7–7/6–6/5–49/40–5/4–9/7–21/16 all equidistant (the distances between which are 36/35, 49/48, and 50/49), or otherwise tuning the pental thirds outwards so that the chroma between them (25/24) is twice the size of the interval between the pental and septimal thirds, 36/35. This is one of two major options for how the thirds are organized in edos of medium size – the other one being keemic temperaments, such as superkleismic, where the gap between 6/5 and 5/4 is compressed to equal that between 7/6 and 6/5 instead of widened to equal twice it. In either case, by tempering the septimal dieses together, there is an exact neutral third in between 6/5 and 5/4. 11-limit myna then arises from equating this neutral third to 11/9 and 13-limit myna adds the interpretation of 16/13 to it as well.

27e-edo and 31edo represent natural endpoints of myna's tuning range, and 27 + 31 = 58edo and 58 + 31 = 89edo are very good tunings. In terms of commas, the most characteristic comma that myna tempers out is 126/125, the starling comma, so that two generators reach 10/7 and four reach the distinctive 36/35~50/49 chroma. Additionally, 1728/1715 (S6/S7), the orwellisma, is tempered out to equate 36/35 with 49/48, and so is 2401/2400, the breedsma, to equate 49/48 and 50/49 (and find a neutral third at 49/40~60/49). In the 11-limit, 176/175, 243/242, 441/440, and 540/539 are tempered out; in the 13-limit, 144/143 and 352/351 are additionally tempered out.

Note: "myna" is pronounced /'maɪnə/, like the bird, but is also as a pun on "minor".
