The '''trienstonic clan''' of [[rank-2 temperament|rank-2]] [[temperament]]s are low-complexity, high-error temperaments that [[tempering out|temper out]] [[28/27]], the septimal third-tone or trienstonic comma. This equates very different intervals with each other; in particular, [[9/8]] with [[7/6]], [[8/7]] with [[32/27]], and [[4/3]] with [[9/7]]. Trienstonian is close to the edge of what can be sensibly called a temperament at all; in other words, it is an [[exotemperament]].

This low-accuracy temperament is generated by a fifth, tuned very sharp such that a stack of three reach a ~7/4. [[5edo]] is the tuning that conflates 7/6~9/8 (+2 generator steps) with ~8/7 (-3 generator steps). If you do not care about the intervals of 9 in this temperament, you can tune the fifth sharper for the [[7-odd-limit]], leading to an [[5L 3s|oneirotonic]] scale or otherwise a [[5L 2s|diatonic]] scale with negative small steps. A tuning that prioritizes the 7-odd-limit also tunes the fifth sharper than the [[pentic]] range, instead generating an [[antipentic]] scale. Trienstonian can be considered the [[2.3.7 subgroup|2.3.7]] analog of [[mavila]] temperament, with extremely sharp fifths rather than extremely flat ones, being on the other side of 3\5 from [[archy]] fifths, just like how mavila fifths are on the other side of 4\7 from [[meantone]] fifths.

=== Overview to extensions ===
Adding 16/15 to 28/27 leads to father, 21/20 gives sharptone, 256/245 gives uncle, and 35/32 gives wallaby. These all use the same generators as trienstonian.
 
50/49 gives octokaidecal with a semi-octave period. 25/24 gives sharpie; 27/25 gives mite. Those split the generator in two. 1029/1000 gives parakangaroo; 126/125 gives opossum. Those split the generator in three. 128/125 gives inflated with a 1/3-octave period. Finally, 49/48 gives blackwood, with a 1/5-octave period.

== Octokaidecal ==
== Octokaidecal ==
The 5-limit [[restriction]] of octokaidecal is supersharp, which tempers out [[800/729]], the difference between the [[27/20]] wolf fourth and the [[40/27]] wolf fifth, splitting the octave into two 27/20~40/27 semioctaves. It generally requires a very sharp fifth, even sharper than 3\5, as a generator. This means that five steps from the [[generator sequence #JI scales obtained from guided generator sequences|Zarlino generator sequence]] starting with 6/5 are tempered to one and a half octaves. The only reasonable 7-limit extension adds 28/27 and 50/49 to the comma list, taking advantage of the existing semioctave.  
: ''For the 5-limit version, see [[Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Supersharp]].''
Octokaidecal extends trienstonian by tempering out [[50/49]], thus splitting the octave in half. It generates the [[8L 2s]] (taric) mos scale, with tunings on the other side of [[10edo]] as [[2L 8s]] (jaric). Compared to [[pajara]], decatonic thirds ([[8/7]] and [[7/6]]) and fourths ([[6/5]] and [[5/4]]) have their mappings reversed, meaning octokaidecal can be considered what is to pajara as [[mavila]] is to [[meantone]].

This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

The trienstonic clan of rank-2 temperaments are low-complexity, high-error temperaments that temper out 28/27, the septimal third-tone or trienstonic comma. This equates very different intervals with each other; in particular, 9/8 with 7/6, 8/7 with 32/27, and 4/3 with 9/7. Trienstonian is close to the edge of what can be sensibly called a temperament at all; in other words, it is an exotemperament.

Trienstonian

This low-accuracy temperament is generated by a fifth, tuned very sharp such that a stack of three reach a ~7/4. 5edo is the tuning that conflates 7/6~9/8 (+2 generator steps) with ~8/7 (-3 generator steps). If you do not care about the intervals of 9 in this temperament, you can tune the fifth sharper for the 7-odd-limit, leading to an oneirotonic scale or otherwise a diatonic scale with negative small steps. A tuning that prioritizes the 7-odd-limit also tunes the fifth sharper than the pentic range, instead generating an antipentic scale. Trienstonian can be considered the 2.3.7 analog of mavila temperament, with extremely sharp fifths rather than extremely flat ones, being on the other side of 3\5 from archy fifths, just like how mavila fifths are on the other side of 4\7 from meantone fifths.

Overview to extensions

Adding 16/15 to 28/27 leads to father, 21/20 gives sharptone, 256/245 gives uncle, and 35/32 gives wallaby. These all use the same generators as trienstonian.

50/49 gives octokaidecal with a semi-octave period. 25/24 gives sharpie; 27/25 gives mite. Those split the generator in two. 1029/1000 gives parakangaroo; 126/125 gives opossum. Those split the generator in three. 128/125 gives inflated with a 1/3-octave period. Finally, 49/48 gives blackwood, with a 1/5-octave period.

Members of the clan discussed elsewhere are:

Considered below are uncle, octokaidecal, and parakangaroo.

Uncle

For the 5-limit version, see Syntonic–diatonic equivalence continuum #Uncle (5-limit).

Uncle tempers out 256/245, mapping the interval class of 5 to -6 generator steps, as a major 2-step in oneirotonic or a diminished fifth in diatonic.

Octokaidecal

For the 5-limit version, see Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Supersharp.

Octokaidecal extends trienstonian by tempering out 50/49, thus splitting the octave in half. It generates the 8L 2s (taric) mos scale, with tunings on the other side of 10edo as 2L 8s (jaric). Compared to pajara, decatonic thirds (8/7 and 7/6) and fourths (6/5 and 5/4) have their mappings reversed, meaning octokaidecal can be considered what is to pajara as mavila is to meantone.

Parakangaroo

For the 5-limit version, see Miscellaneous 5-limit temperaments #Kangaroo.

This temperament used to be known as kangaroo, but was decanonicalized in 2024 in favor of a more accurate extension. It splits the perfect twelfth into three generators of ~10/7; its ploidacot is alpha-tricot. 15edo shows us an obvious tuning.
