added an ups/downs/lifts/drops notation
Notation section; qintosec -> 2.3.5.11 quintosec
Line 19: Line 19:
The 119\205 meantone fifth is extremely close to the 1/4-comma fifth, being only 0.007 cents sharp of it. Moreover the steps are half a cent flat of 1/4 of a syntonic comma. This makes the Tonal Plexus keyboard potentially of use in implementing [[Wikipedia: Nicola Vicentino|Nicola Vicentino]]'s [http://www.tonalsoft.com/monzo/vicentino/vicentino.aspx adaptive-JI scheme of 1555]. It also means that authentic 1/4-comma meantone tuning is, for practical purposes, available in 205 and allows for historically authentic performances of 1/4-comma music on the historically newfangled Tonal Plexus.

=== Divisors ===
=== Subsets and supersets ===
205 factors into primes as 5 × 41, a fact some advocates of the division make use of; it is also [[2460edo|2460/12]], so that a single step is precisely 12 [[mina]]s.

=== Notation ===
== Notation ==
=== Ups and downs ===
205edo can be notated with [[Ups and downs notation|ups and downs]] representing 5\205 = 1\41, and lifts and drops (written as / and \) representing 1\205. This has the advantage of building on a familiarity with 41edo, and is especially useful for [[Kite guitar|Kite guitarists]] who want to notate microbends more precisely.
