Slendric: Difference between revisions

Line 59:

There is a 5-note MOS, Lssss, in which L is 7/6 and s is 8/7; and a 6-note MOS, LLLLLs, in which L is 8/7 and s is the characteristic small interval of slendric representing both 64/63 and 49/48.

Both of these scales are somewhat lacking in harmonic resources relative to similar-sized scales of other temperaments. Even within the 2.3.7 subgroup, [[Superpyth|~~superpyth~~]] and [[Semaphore|semaphore]] have pentatonic scales with more consonant intervals and chords; or if more accuracy is desired a 2.3.7 JI scale could be used.

Both of these scales are somewhat lacking in harmonic resources relative to similar-sized scales of other temperaments. Even within the 2.3.7 subgroup, [[Superpyth|archy]] and [[Semaphore|semaphore]] have pentatonic scales with more consonant intervals and chords; or if more accuracy is desired a 2.3.7 JI scale could be used.

Slendric really shines when used with larger scales than these. The 5-note MOS, however, has a special role in organizing the intervals of slendric because it is so close to [[5edo|5edo]] (see below).
