'''Carlos Beta''' is a non-octave [[equal temperament]] invented by [[Wendy Carlos]], with step size about 63.833{{cent}}, or almost exactly every fifth step of [[94edo]]. In this temperament, the interval of 11 steps approximates [[3/2]], that of 6 steps approximates [[5/4]], and that of 5 steps approximates [[6/5]].

equal steps and the fifth in 10.996753 equal steps of 63.832933{{cent}} each<ref>Dave Benson, ''Music: A Mathematical Offering'', pp. 232-233.</ref>. It is thus very close to the [[EDF|equal division of the just perfect fifth]] into eleven parts of 63.8141{{cent}} each (11ed3/2), corresponding to 18.8046[[edo]].
