Parasoft tunings (step ratios between 4:3 to 3:2) correspond to flattone temperaments, characterized by flattening the perfect 5th (3/2) so it makes the diatonic major 3rd flatter than 5/4 (386¢). Compatible edos include 26edo, 45edo, and 64edo. | |||

===Hypohard === | |||
:''Main articles: [[Pythagorean tuning]] and [[Schismatic family#Schismatic aka Helmholtz|schismatic temperament]]'' | |||
The range of hypohard tunings can be divided into a minihard range (step ratios 2:1 to 5:2) and quasihard range (step ratios 5:2 to 3:1). | |||
{{MOS degrees|Scale Signature=5L 2s|Step Ratio=3 | ==== Minihard ==== | ||
Minihard tunings correspond to Pythagorean tuning and schismatic temperament, characterized by having a perfect 5th that is as close to just (701.96¢) as possible, resulting in 81/64 (407.8¢) for its major 3rd. Compatible edos include 41edo, and 53edo. | |||
{{MOS degrees|Scale Signature=5L 2s|Step Ratio=7/3; 9/4}} | |||
=== | ==== Quasihard ==== | ||
Quasihard tunings correspond to "neogothic" or "parapyth" systems whose perfect 5th is sharper than just, resulting in major 3rds that are sharper than 81/64. Compatible edos include 29edo and 46edo. | |||
===Parahard | 17edo is considered to be on the sharper end of the neogothic spectrum, with a major 3rd that is more discordant than flatter neogothic tunings. | ||
{{MOS degrees|Scale Signature=5L 2s|Step Ratio=5/2; 8/3; 3/1}} | |||
===Parahard and ultrahard=== | |||
Parahard and ultrahard tunings (step ratio 3:1 or sharper) correspond to "archy" systems. Compatible edos include 17edo and 22edo. | |||

5L 2s has a parent scale of 2L 3s, meaning 5L 2s contains 2L 3s as a subset. 5L 2s also has two child scales that both contain 5L 2s as a subset: either 7L 5s (if the step ratio is less than 2:1) or 5L 7s (if the step ratio is greater than 2:1). A step ratio exactly 2:1 will produce 12edo, an equalized form of 5L 7s and 7L 5s. | 5L 2s has a parent scale of 2L 3s, meaning 5L 2s contains 2L 3s as a subset. 5L 2s also has two child scales that both contain 5L 2s as a subset: either 7L 5s (if the step ratio is less than 2:1) or 5L 7s (if the step ratio is greater than 2:1).
