Finally found the time to crunch the math to optimise this one.

There are many conceivable ways to map [[60edo]] onto the [[Lumatone]] keyboard. Unfortunately, as it has multiple rings of 5ths, the [[Standard Lumatone mapping for Pythagorean]] is not one of them. Since it is [[Highly_composite_equal_division|highly composite]], many other mappings will also fail to cover the entire gamut, and even those that do will have limited range. For example, [[magic]] needs to be expanded to the [[3L 13s]] mos, at which point it only has a range of three and a half octaves.

The [[3L 10s]] mapping is still playable and covers 5 octaves, but skips a number of chromas along the way, and this escalates with more compressed mappings.

The [[amity]] mapping also suffers from chroma skips between most columns unless expanded outwards from the [[4L 3s]] mapping to the [[7L 4s]] one, which also makes octaves further apart vertically.
