The '''Pepsi'''{{idiosyncratic}}, one of "irregular" temperament, is constructed by the repetition of power of √3 starting from [[3/2]] (701.955¢). It can also be regarded as a [[Regular temperament]] on the logarithmic axis, i.e., a sequence of intervals with double exponentiational increment (<math>702\cdot3^{n/2}</math>¢).  
The '''Pepsi'''{{idiosyncratic}} (name proposed by [[User:R-4981|R-4981]]) [[tuning system]] is the [[geometric pitch sequence]] (GPS) where the initial interval is [[3/2]] (701.955¢) and each subsequent interval has its pitch [[Interval size measure|measure]] multiplied by √3.


at first glance this temperament exhibits characteristics similar to [[Redbull]], the direction of its potential use value is fundamentally different because of the different construction methods.  Also, since the double index is not a tetration (obvious), this scale cannot be expressed in [[EDSO]] or [[Super-pitch]]ies.
The formula for the ''n''th interval of this tuning, where ''p''(''n'') is pitch in [[cent]]s, is:


== Interval chains ==
:<math>p(n) \approx 701.955~¢ \cdot 3^{n/2}</math>,


or in its exact form:
:<math>p(n) = \left(1200 \log_2 \left(\frac{3}{2}\right) \right)¢ \cdot 3^{n/2}</math>.
At first glance, this tuning exhibits characteristics similar to [[Redbull]], namely its common use of √3, but the direction of its potential use value is fundamentally different because of the different construction methods. Also, since the double index is not a tetration (obvious), this scale cannot be expressed in [[EDSO]] or [[super-pitch]].
== Interval chain ==
In this table, the intervals are [[octave-reduced]]. Except 3/2 which is just by construction, every ratio given in the second row is approximated by the corresponding pitch of the tuning.
