Sycamore family: Difference between revisions

The '''sycamore family''' of [[regular temperament|temperaments]] tempers out the [[sycamore comma]] ({{monzo|legend=1| -16 -6 11 }}, [[ratio]]: 48828125/47775744).  

 

Another possible tuning uses a generator which is a near pure 3/2 at 702.162258 [[cent]]s divided into 11 parts, and this makes the generator chain of sycamore exactly the same as [[Carlos Beta]]. In fact, Carlos Beta is characterized by Carlos as taking five steps to reach 6/5 and six to reach 5/4, which means it tempers out the sycamore comma. It can be described as the generator chain of sycamore, or sycamore can be called Carlos Beta with octaves.

== Septimal sycamore ==

The second element of the [[normal forms #Normal forms for commas|normal comma list]] for septimal sycamore is [[875/864]], the keema, and it also tempers out [[686/675]], the senga, and [[3136/3125]], hemimean. It may also be called the 19 & 56 temperament. This may also be used as the name for the temperament obtained by adding [[100/99]] to sycamore's commas, giving undecimal sycamore, where 10 generator steps reaches 16/11, 11 reach 3/2, and 15 give 7/4, adding a considerable dose of 11-limit harmonies to the 19-note mos. [[75edo]] is an excellent tuning for 7-limit sycamore, and [[56edo]] for the 11-limit version.

== Betic ==

Septimal sycamore sharpens the fifth from where it stands in the 5-limit, and lowers accuracy in order to reach 7-limit harmonies. If we retain tunings approximately (e.g. 94edo) or exactly those of Carlos Beta, we get the 19 & 94 temperament, betic, for the 7-limit. This adds [[225/224]] to the sycamore comma. The Carlos Beta tuning, with pure fifths, is a good tuning choice, but 94 or 113 equal are as well. Betic extends to the 11-limit upon addition of [[385/384]] or [[540/539]] to the list of commas, which means it supports both 7 and 11-limit marvel.
