54edo: Difference between revisions

54edo is suitable for usage with [[dual-fifth tuning]] systems, or alternately, no-fifth tuning systems. 54edo has an ultrahard diatonic scale using the sharp fifth of [[27edo]] and an ultrasoft diatonic using the flat fifth. The soft diatonic scale is so soft, with L/s = 8/7, that it stops sounding like [[meantone]] or even [[flattone]], but just sounds like a [[circulating temperament]] of [[7edo]].

It's a rare temperament which adds better approximations of the 11th and 15th harmonics from [[27edo]], which it doubles. 54edo contains an alternate (flat) mapping of the fifth and an "extreme bayati" 6 6 10 10 2 10 10 diatonic scale.

Using the patent val, 54edo tempers out [[2048/2025]] in the 5-limit, making it a [[diaschismic]] system. It is the highest [[EDO]] in which the best mappings of the major 3rd ([[5/4]]) and harmonic 7th ([[7/4]]), 17\54 and 44\54, are exactly 600 cents apart, making them suitable for harmonies using tritone substitutions. In other words, this is the last EDO tempering out [[50/49]]. This means it extends quite simply to the 7 and 11 limits using the [[pajarous]] mapping and to the 13-limit using the f val, falling neatly between the 7 and 13 limit [[Target_tuning#Minimax_tuning|minimax]] tunings. The 54cd val makes for an excellent tuning of 7-limit [[Augmented_family#Hexe|hexe temperament]], while the bdf val does higher limit [[Magic family #Muggles|muggles]] about as well as it can be tuned. However, even these best temperament interpretations are quite high in badness compared to it's immediate neighbours 53 & 55edo, both of which are historically significant for different reasons, leaving it mostly unexplored so far.
