It takes as its basis a [[Regular_Temperaments|regular temperament]] mentioned in [[Erv_Wilson|Ervin Wilson]]'s Scale Tree and described on the Tuning List by [[Keenan Pepper]], with a fifth of about 704.096 [[Cent|cents]], and a precise ratio of [[wikipedia:Golden_ratio|Phi]], the Golden Section (~1.618) between the larger chromatic semitone (e.g. C-C#) at about 128.669 cents and the smaller diatonic semitone (e.g. C#-D) at about 79.522 cents. Said fifth has a precise value of (67 + √5)/118 octaves, which is (40200 + 600 √5)/59 cents. | It takes as its basis a [[Regular_Temperaments|regular temperament]] mentioned in [[Erv_Wilson|Ervin Wilson]]'s Scale Tree and described on the Tuning List by [[Keenan Pepper]], with a fifth of about 704.096 [[Cent|cents]], and a precise ratio of [[wikipedia:Golden_ratio|Phi]], the Golden Section (~1.618) between the larger chromatic semitone (e.g. C-C#) at about 128.669 cents and the smaller diatonic semitone (e.g. C#-D) at about 79.522 cents.
