Lumatone mapping for 29edo: Difference between revisions

== Semiquartal (Immunity) ==

The [[Immunity]] mapping works particularly well if you want a larger range, as [[barbados]] chords are tuned very accurately~~. However~~, ~~the resulting~~ [[~~5L 4s~~]] ~~scale has a~~ 5~~:1 step ratio~~ which ~~makes it somewhat lopsided~~.

The [[4L 1s]] [[Immunity]] mapping works particularly well if you want a larger range, as [[barbados]] chords are tuned very accurately, [[Gentle_region|gentle]] ones slightly less so, and 5-limit ones have far higher error, which conveniently aligns with the ease of fingering those types of chord.

This can be compressed down to a [[1L 3s]] mapping that maximises range and keeps octaves even closer to horizontal, but makes the fingerings for non-barbados chords more awkward to play.

== Porcupine ==

~~The~~ [[~~7L 1s~~]] [[Porcupine]] ~~layout is also a good option~~ as ~~it keeps octaves close to horizontal, but sacrifices some~~ range.

If you do want to focus on the 5-limit, the [[1L 6s]] [[Porcupine]] mapping makes it as easily accessible as possible for this edo and has the same range as the diatonic mapping.
