The [[generator]] for the amity temperament is the acute minor third, which means the [[6/5]] just minor third raised by a [[81/80|syntonic comma]] comma to [[243/200]], and from this it derives its name. If you are looking for a different kind of neutral third, this could be the temperament for you. Its [[ploidacot]] is gamma-pentacot. It is a member of the [[syntonic–chromatic equivalence continuum]] with {{nowrap| ''n'' {{=}} 5 }}, so it equates an apotome with a stack of five syntonic commas. It is also in the [[schismic–Mercator equivalence continuum]] with {{nowrap| ''n'' {{=}} 5 }}, so unless 53edo is used as a tuning, the schisma is always observed. | |||
Amity is a genuine [[microtemperament]] in the 5-limit, with 58\205 being a possible tuning. Another good choice is (64/5)<sup>1/13</sup>, which gives a pure classical major third. [[Mos scale]]s of 11, 18, 25, 32, 39, 46 or 53 notes are available. | |||
