Tetrameantone: Difference between revisions

Why did you document an interval in a temperament page??
Rework intro and invert the interval chain since 3/1 and 5/1 (or 5/4) are more recognizable
Line 1: Line 1:
The '''tetrameantone''' temperament is a [[nonoctave]] [[meantone]] temperament, tempering out the [[81/80]] in the 4.3.5 subgroup and repeating at the double octave [[4/1]]. It is generated by [[4/3]] and, like in normal meantone temperament, 4 of them make a [[8/5]] plus an octave.
The '''tetrameantone''' temperament is a [[nonoctave]] [[regular temperament|temperament]] [[tempering out]] [[81/80]] in the 4.3.5-[[subgroup]]. It is similar to [[meantone]] but repeats at the double octave [[4/1]]. It is generated by [[3/1]] and, like in normal meantone temperament, four of them make a [[5/1]] plus two double octaves.

Tritave-repeating tetrameantone (3.4.5 subgroup) is made by cutting off the 4/3 interval range of the tetratave scale. extension will start at 3.4.5.14 subgroup. If we want strict no-twos subgroup, will be 3.5.13.
