'''Omega-tricot''' is a temperament archetype where the generator is a submajor second, three of which stack to form a perfect fourth of [[4/3]], and the period is a [[2/1]] octave. Omega-tricot temperaments usually generate the [[1L 6s]] and [[7L 1s]] MOS structures. Omega-tricot temperaments produce "supraminor" and "submajor" intervals, splitting the chromatic semitone into three parts.

While there is no agreed-upon notation system for omega-tricot, the following is based on interpreting the generator as a submajor second. ^^C and vC# are enharmonic.
While there is no agreed-upon notation system for omega-tricot, the following is based on interpreting the generator as a submajor second, allowing for an ^ or v to stand for 1/3 of a chromatic semitone, so ^^C and vC# are enharmonic.

In [[superpine]], the generator is again mapped to 11/10, and the mapping for 5 is as in [[meantone]], so [[5/4]] is found 12 generators down. The interval of two generators no longer represents a minor third, but more of a neutral one, as it is mapped to [[39/32]] (so that 5 generators span [[13/8]]). The canonical mapping of 7 places [[7/2]] at 13 generators, equating the generator to [[35/32]]. It is best tuned with a slightly sharp generator of about 168{{c}}.
