'''Enneacot''' is a temperament archetype where the generator is a small semitone, nine of which make a perfect fifth of [[3/2]], and the period is a [[2/1]] octave. Enneacot temperaments also include all [[Ploidacot/Tricot|tricot]] intervals, as the tricot generator is split further into three.

Enneacot temperaments generate the [[15L 1s]] MOS scale, and are mostly famous in the form of the [[Carlos Alpha]] scale, which is usually perceived as multiple independent chains of enneacot generators offset by octaves.

Due to dividing the fifth into so many steps, standard notation becomes almost useless for enneacot. Regardless, notation has been provided for where [[Ploidacot/Monocot|monocot]] intervals appear in this system.

[[Valentine]] is the standard [[regular temperament]] interpretation of the Carlos Alpha scale as an ET. 5 generators is [[5/4]], 4 is [[6/5]], and 3 is [[8/7]]. It can be extended to the 11-limit by setting 7 steps to [[11/8]]; [[Valentine extensions|a few mappings]] of 13 are possible, the most accurate of which maps 20 generators to [[32/13]].
