The '''canou family''' of rank-3 temperaments tempers out the [[canousma]], 4802000/4782969 = {{monzo|4 -14 3 4}}, a 7-limit comma measuring about 6.9 cents.

The '''canou family''' of [[rank-3 temperament]]s [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[canousma]] ({{monzo|legend=1| 4 -14 3 4 }}, [[ratio]]: 4802000/4782969), a 7-limit comma measuring about 6.9 [[cent]]s.


== Canou ==
== Canou ==
The canou temperament features a period of an octave and generators of [[3/2]] and [[81/70]]. The 81/70-generator is about 255 cents. Two of them interestingly make a [[980/729]] at about 510 cents, an audibly off perfect fourth. Three of them make a [[14/9]]; four of them make a [[9/5]]. It therefore also features splitting the septimal diesis, [[49/48]], into three equal parts, making two distinct [[interseptimal]] intervals related to the 35th harmonic.
{{Main| Canou }}


Decent amount of harmonic resources are provided by a simple 9-note scale. [[Flora Canou]] commented:
The canou temperament features a [[period]] of an [[octave]] and [[generator]]s of [[3/2]] and [[81/70]]. The ~81/70 generator is about 255 cents wide, three of which make [[14/9]], and four make [[9/5]]. It therefore splits the large septimal diesis, [[49/48]], into three equal parts, guaranteeing the existence of two [[interseptimal interval]]s related to the 35th harmonic.


:''— It sounds somewhat like a Phrygian scale but the abundance of small intervals of [[28/27]] makes it melodically active.''
A basic tuning option would be [[99edo]], although [[80edo]] is even simpler and distinctive. More intricate tunings are provided by [[311edo]] and [[410edo]], whereas the [[optimal patent val]] goes up to [[1131edo]], associating it with the [[amicable]] temperament.  


14- and 19-note scales are also possible. See [[canou scales]] for more information.
[[Subgroup]]: 2.3.5.7
 
For tunings, a basic option would be [[99edo]]. Others such as [[80edo]], [[94edo]], and [[118edo]] are possible; [[19edo]] (perferably with stretched octaves) also provides a good trivial case, whereas the [[optimal patent val]] goes up to [[1131edo]], relating it to the [[amicable]] temperament.

== Undecimal canou ==
The fifth is in the range where a stack of four (i.e. a major third) can serve as ~[[19/15]] and a stack of five (i.e. a major seventh) can serve as ~[[19/10]], tempering out [[1216/1215]]. Moreover, the last generator of ~81/70 is sharpened to slightly overshoot [[22/19]], so it only makes sense to temper out their difference, [[1540/1539]]. The implied 11-limit comma is the [[symbiotic comma]], which suggests the [[wilschisma]] should also be tempered out in the [[13-limit]].


== Synca  ==
Since the syntonic comma has been split in two, it is natural to map [[19/17]] to the mean of [[9/8]] and [[10/9]], tempering out [[1445/1444]], while the other 11-limit comma, [[42875/42768]] (S34⋅S35<sup>2</sup>), suggests tempering out [[595/594]] (S34⋅S35), [[1156/1155]] (S34), and [[1225/1224]] (S35), which coincides with above. Finally, we can map [[23/20]] to the fourth complement of 22/19 to make an equidistant sequence consisting of 7/6, 22/19, 23/20, and 8/7, tempering out [[760/759]]. [[311edo]] remains an excellent tuning in all the limits.  
Synca, for symbiotic canou, adds the [[symbiotic comma]] to the comma list.

== Semicanou  ==
=== 13-limit ===
Subgroup: 2.3.5.7.11.13


Semicanou adds 9801/9800, the kalisma, to the comma list, and may be described as 80 & 94 & 118. It splits the octave into two equal parts, each representing 99/70. Note that 99/70 = (81/70)×(11/9), this extension is more than natural.
Comma list: 2080/2079, 19712/19683, 42875/42768


The other comma necessary to define it is 14641/14580, the [[semicanousma]], which is the difference between [[121/120]] and [[243/242]]. By flattening the 11th harmonic by one cent, it identifies [[20/11]] by three [[11/9]]'s stacked, so an octave can be divided into 11/9-11/9-11/9-11/10.
Mapping: {{mapping| 1 0 0 -1 -7 -13 | 0 1 2 2 7 10 | 0 0 -4 3 -3 4 }}


Still 80edo, 94edo, and 118edo can be used as tunings. Other options include [[104edo]] in 104c val.

This adds [[351/350]], the ratwolfsma, as wells as [[364/363]], the gentle comma, to the comma list. Since 351/350 = (81/70)/(15/13), the 81/70-generator simultaneously represents 15/13, adding a lot of fun to the scale.

Not supported by many patent vals, 80edo easily makes the optimal. Yet 104edo in 104c val and 118edo in 118f val are worth mentioning, and the temperament may be described as 80 & 104c & 118f.

By adding [[896/891]], the pentacircle comma, [[33/32]] is equated with 28/27, so the scale is filled with this 33/32~28/27 mixture. This may be described as {{nowrap| 75e & 80 & 99e }}, and 80edo makes the optimal. It has a natural extension to the 13-limit since 896/891 = (352/351)⋅(364/363), named ''gentcanta'' in earlier materials.
