Perhaps the simplest method of making use of the barbados triad and other characteristic island harmonies is to strip things down to essentials by tempering the 2.3.13/5 [[just intonation subgroup]]. The minimax tuning for this makes the generator the cube root of 20/13, or 248.5953 cents. EDOs which may be used for it are [[24edo]], [[29edo]], [[53edo]] and [[111edo]], with MOS of size 5, 9, 14, 19, 24 and 29 making for a good variety of scales.

Cata may be viewed as the [[restriction|"reduction"]] of [[catakleismic]] to the 2.3.5.13 subgroup. Another way to put it is that it is the rank-2 2.3.5.13 subgroup temperament tempering out 325/324, 625/624 and hence also 676/675.

Tobago uses the semioctave period. It can be described as the 10 & 14 temperament and is related to [[neutral]] and [[barbados]].
