118th-octave temperaments: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

[[118edo]] is the 17th [[zeta peak edo]], and it is accurate for harmonics 3 and 5, so various 118th-octave temperaments naturally occur through temperament merging of its supersets. Furthermore, one step of 118edo is in direct proximity to essential tempering commas [[169/168]] and [[170/169]].

=== ~~Centenniamajor~~ ===

=== Peithoian ===

~~Centenniamajor~~ is an extension of parakleischis which retains the 5-limit mapping of 118edo and provides the correction for 13th harmonic. 13-limit is the first prime limit that 118edo does not tune consistently, and the goal of ~~centenniamajor~~ temperament is to expand on that. Named after the ~~fact that 18 is the age of majority in most countries, and 100 (centennial) + 18 (major) =~~ 118.

Peithoian is an extension of parakleischis which retains the 5-limit mapping of 118edo and provides the correction for 13th harmonic. 13-limit is the first prime limit that 118edo does not tune consistently, and the goal of peithoian temperament is to expand on that. Named after the minor planet [[wikipedia:118 Peitho|118 Peitho]].
