'''16ed5/3''' (or less accurately '''16edVI''') is the [[EdVI|equal division of the just major sixth]] into sixteen parts of 55.2724 [[cent|cents]] each, corresponding to 21.7106 [[edo]]. It is very closely related to the [[Escapade family|escapade temperament]]. It is vaguely equivalent to [[22edo]].
'''16ed5/3''' is the [[Ed5/3|equal division of the just major sixth]] into sixteen parts of 55.2724 [[cent]]s each, corresponding to 21.7106[[edo]]. It is very closely related to the [[Escapade family|escapade temperament]]. It is vaguely equivalent to [[22edo]].


It very accurately approximates a number of low complexity just intervals, such as: [[4/3]] (<1¢), [[5/4]] (<1¢), [[11/8]] (<2¢), [[11/10]] (<1¢), [[16/15]] (<2¢), and [[25/16]] (<2¢). It also approximates the [[3/2|just fifth]] and [[2/1|octave]] to within 17¢, making it a flexible non-octave scale.  Notably, having a period of [[5/3]], the diatonic minor third ([[6/5]]) is the period-reduced diatonic octave. This means both are approximated identically (16¢ sharp).

16ed5/3 can be notated using steps 7 (~5/4) and 9 (~4/3) as generators, as these are accurate to within 0.6¢. The resulting scale is a heptatonic 2L 5s (similar to the octave repeating antidiatonic). It can also be notated using the fifth-generated [[Blackcomb]] temperament.

It can also be notated using the fifth-generated [[Blackcomb]] temperament as discussed in [[#Temperaments]], which lines up quite nicely with diatonic notation, aside from the "minor second" being in neutral second range and "perfect fourth" being in superfourth range.

Depending on your mapping, 16ed5/3 can be said to temper a number of commas, including the '''diaschisma''', the '''marvel comma''', '''Archytas' comma''', and the '''jubilisma''', all discussed in the temperaments section. In addition, being an even division of the 5/3, it tempers the '''sensamagic comma''' ([[245/243]]), as the half mosoctave is midway between [[9/7]] and [[35/27]]. This is analogous to the tritone in 2n edo systems. The '''keema''' ([[875/864]]) is tempered due to the septimal interpretation of the diatonic sevenths, and the '''Motwellsma''' ([[99/98]]) is tempered by two major mos3rds ([[7/6]]) resulting in an augmented mos5th ([[11/8]]).

The diaschisma can also be tempered by taking 5 generators to mean a [[3/2]] ((<sup>4</sup>/<sub>3</sub>)<sup>5</sup>=(<sup>3</sup>/<sub>2</sub>)·(<sup>5</sup>/<sub>3</sub>)<sup>2</sup>), while the marvel comma can also be tempered with a stack of 3 generators, making a [[10/7]] ((<sup>4</sup>/<sub>3</sub>)<sup>3</sup>=(<sup>10</sup>/<sub>7</sub>)·(<sup>5</sup>/<sub>3</sub>)).

The tempered marvel comma also means that the two large [[Tritone|tritones]] ([[64/45|pental]] and [[10/7|septimal]]) are addressed by the same scale step. The tempered diaschisma, on the other hand, means that both pental tritones are also addressed by the same scale step.

Both of the 7-limit approaches also temper Archytas' comma ([[64/63]]) as a result of equating the [[16/9]] with [[7/4]], and the jubilisma ([[50/49]]) due to tritone equivalence. These are relatively large commas, given the step size (about half, and 7/11ths respectively).

This shows the close relationships with [[Srutal]] and [[Pajara]] octave temperaments. In 16ed5/3's case, there is a close equivalence to [[22edo]]'s pajara tuning.

As 3 semitones make a period-reduced octave, and it alludes to tritone tempering, [[User:Ayceman|I]] propose the name '''tristone''' for the basic [[Diaschismic family|diaschismic temperament]], based on the 16/15 to 6/5 relationship, as well as the following variants and extensions:
16ed5/3 primes can be mapped on the 31-limit to the val ⟨65 103 151 183 225 241 266 276 294 316 322], using every 3 steps of a shrinked [[65edo]] (-2.431¢ per octave). It differs from the patent val of 65edo in the mapping of prime 7 (val 65d).

16ed5/3 also supports [[Blackcomb]] temperament which is built on [[5/4]] and [[3/2]] in a very similar way to octave-repeating [[meantone]] but is less accurate. Blackcomb tempers out the comma [[250/243]], the amount by which 3 [[3/2]]'s exceed [[5/4]] sixth-reduced, in the 5/3.2.3 subgroup (equal to the [[5-limit]]).

'''16ed5/3''' also supports [[Blackcomb]] temperament which is built on [[5/4]] and [[3/2]] in a very similar way to octave-repeating [[meantone]] but is less accurate. Blackcomb tempers out the comma [[250/243]], the amount by which 3 [[3/2]]'s exceed [[5/4]] sixth-reduced, in the 5/3.2.3 subgroup (equal to the [[5-limit]]).
