Other intervals are also stretched in a way that makes the unrecognizable–the diatonic fifth is now the size of a major seventh. Interestingly, [[19edt]], an approximation of [[12edo]], has a tuning of this scale, meaning it contains both a diatonic scale (which approximates 12edo's diatonic scale) and a macrodiatonic scale. | ||

Although they have not been studied in detail, it is possible to construct no-twos [[rank-2 temperament]] interpretations of this scale, such as the as-of-yet unnamed b12 & b5 temperament in the 3.13.17 [[subgroup]], in which the generator is ~[[17/9]] and a stack of 4 generators tritave-reduced is ~[[13/9]]. See also the page for [[12edt]]. | Although they have not been studied in detail, it is possible to construct no-twos [[rank-2 temperament]] interpretations of this scale, such as the as-of-yet unnamed b12 & b5 temperament in the 3.13.17 [[subgroup]], in which the generator is ~[[17/9]] and a stack of 4 generators tritave-reduced is ~[[13/9]].
