In the no-3's [[13-limit]], this temperament is [[hemiwur]] without a mapping for prime 3. The mapping of prime 13 is somewhat strange, because it is the only mapping that requires a negative amount of generators, and not by an insignificant amount, but it can be rationalized in a variety of ways, such as that because [[~]][[8/7]] is already tuned considerably flat, it makes sense to equate two of it with [[13/10]], as this is also how we find [[22/17]] in the no-3's 17-limit. The mapping of 13 increases the [[badness]] of the temperament as a result.

In the full no-3's [[19-limit]], this temperament is a structure common to quite a few temperaments. It is a rank-2 version of [[orion]] with a mapping for 13. It is a no-3's version of 19-limit [[grosstone]] which can be seen as an extension of [[undecimal meantone]] according to the "mediant-tone" logic of this temperament, and which as aforementioned effectively doubles the complexity of the temperament as a result of finding the generator of [[~]][[19/17]][[~]][[28/25]] as ([[~]][[3/2]])<sup>2</sup>/[[2/1|2]]. It does not work so well as an extension for [[hemiwur]] to the full 19-limit, but if you want to try anyway, a notable patent-val tuning is [[37edo]], which finds prime 3 through the [[würschmidt]] mapping so that [[6/1]] is found at 16 generators.

==== Mediantone (2.5.7.11.13.17.19 subgroup) ====
Mediantone is named after its whole tone generator serving as the [[mediant]] of [[9/8]] and [[10/9]], namely [[19/17]], in addition to [[28/25]], as well as by the observation that this temperament seems to have been repeatedly rediscovered in parts in a variety of contexts, so that it seems to exist as a "median" of all of these temperaments' logics. It is also an intentional play on "[[meantone]]", as the context one is most likely to first discover this logic is when the tone also represents [[10/9]][[~]][[9/8]].
