A perfect ringer ''n'' scale is one that by some val can map the first ''n'' odd harmonics to distinct numbers of steps up to [[octave equivalence]]. These are the only perfect ringer scales: | A perfect ringer ''n'' scale is one that by some val can map the first ''n'' odd harmonics to distinct numbers of steps up to [[octave equivalence]].

Notice how all of these do not skip any harmonics while representing the harmonic series ''completely'' up to some [[odd-limit]]. | Notice how all of these do not skip any harmonics while representing the harmonic series ''completely'' up to some [[odd-limit]]. | ||

This section will detail known ringers for edos smaller than 100. Because [[wart]]s are limited when it comes to large primes, any primes past 43 are explicitly listed in the form [p, q, r, ...] rather than abbreviated (rather cryptically) as letters. A quick summary of all the warts up to 43 is: | This section will detail known ringers for edos smaller than 100.

b means 3 gets a next-best mapping, c means 5 gets a next-best mapping, d means 7 gets a next-best mapping and so on: e means 11, f means 13, g means 17, h means 19, i means 23, j means 29, k means 31, l means 37, m means 41, n means 43.

There should be at least two forms listed. One will be in the form used for the example of Ringer 15. One will be in the minimum mode of the harmonic series that contains all harmonics. Both can be pasted directly into scale workshop using the enumerate chord feature or into other programs, but the latter form is useful in case a program does not support the other notation. | There should be at least two forms listed.
