The '''pelogic family''' tempers out [[135/128]], the pelogic comma, also known as the major chroma or major limma. The [[5-limit]] temperament is (5-limit) '''mavila''', so named after the Chopi village where it was discovered. The generator for all of these is a very flat fifth, lying on the spectrum between 7-equal and 9-equal.
The '''mavila family''' of [[regular temperament|temperaments]] [[tempering out|tempers out]] [[135/128]], the mavila comma, also known as the major chroma or major limma. The [[5-limit]] temperament is [[mavila]], so named after the Chopi village where it was discovered, and is the base from which higher limit temperaments are derived. The generator for all of these is a very flat fifth, lying on the spectrum between [[7edo]] and [[9edo]].


One of the most salient and characteristic features of pelogic temperament is that when you stack 4 of the tempered fifths you get to a minor third instead of the usual major third that you would get if the fifths were pure. This also means that the arrangement of small and large steps in a 7-note mavila scale is the inverse of a diatonic scale of 2 small steps and 5 large steps; Mavila has 2 large steps and 5 small steps (see [[2L 5s]]).

Another salient feature of pelogic temperament is the fact that 9 note MOS scales may be produced, thus giving us three different MOS scales to choose from that are not decidedly chromatic in nature (5, 7, and 9 note scales). This is reflected in the design of the 9 + 7 layout of the Goldsmith keyboard for 16 tone equal temperament (see [[7L 2s]]).

One of the most common temperaments talked about in the pelogic family is '''mavila''', the 5-limit temperament eliminating 135/128, from which higher-limit extensions are derived.

=== Overview to extensions ===
==== 7-limit extensions ====
The second comma of the [[normal lists|normal comma list]] defines which [[7-limit]] family member we are looking at. That means [[36/35]] for armodue, [[126/125]] for mavling, [[21/20]] for pelogic, [[875/864]] for hornbostel, [[49/48]] for superpelog, [[50/49]] for bipelog, and [[1323/1250]] for mohavila.
 
Temperaments discussed elsewhere include
* ''[[Medusa]]'' (+15/14) → [[Very low accuracy temperaments #Medusa|Very low accuracy temperaments]]
* ''[[Wallaby]]'' (+28/27) → [[Very low accuracy temperaments #Wallaby|Very low accuracy temperaments]]
* ''[[Superpelog]]'' (+49/48) → [[Semaphoresmic clan #Superpelog|Semaphoresmic clan]]
* ''[[Clyndro]]'' (+360/343) → [[Gamelismic clan #Clyndro|Gamelismic clan]]
* ''[[Jamesbond]]'' (+25/24) → [[Whitewood family #Jamesbond|Whitewood family]]
 
Considered below are mavling, pelogic, armodue, hornbostel, bipelog, and mohavila.
 
==== Subgroup extensions ====
Mavila naturally extends to the 2.3.5.11 subgroup, with the generator standing in for ~16/11 and ~22/15, as is given right below.

== Armodue ==
Armodue, also known as '''hexadecimal''', is the main 7-limit extension of mavila, and also the main temperament of [[Armodue theory]]. It tempers out 36/35, and can be described as the {{nowrap| 7 & 9 }} temperament. 7/4 is mapped to the minor seventh of the antidiatonic scale, where we will find 9/5 in the 5-limit. [[16edo]] shows us an obvious tuning.
 
The name ''armodue'' has been established in 2011 thanks to [[Mike Battaglia]]<ref name="mike's cleanup">[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_101194.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Higher-limit mavila extension spring cleaning'']</ref>.

Named by Mike Battaglia in 2012<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_104134.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Mohavila temperament'']</ref>, mohavila splits the mavila fifth in two. Unlike [[mohaha]], this generator is not used as an ~11/9. In fact, the prime 11 is the same as in mavila, so the ~11/9 is the major third, tempered together with ~5/4. The fifth is only split to derive septimal intervals.
