'''Polaris''' is a [[tritave]]-repeating [[rank-2 temperament]] that tempers out the comma 177147/171875 in the 3.5.11 subgroup, the amount by which 7 [[5/3]]'s fall short of [[15/11]]. It contains [[MOS scale]]s of the families [[2L 5s (tritave-equivalent)|2L 5s<3/1>]], [[2L 7s (tritave-equivalent)|2L 7s<3/1>]], and [[2L 9s (tritave-equivalent)|2L 9s<3/1>]]. The hendecatonic scale is generally the most usable of these, with the heptatonic and nonatonic scales usually being lopsided. Good tunings for Polaris are [[15edt]] and [[32edt]]. | '''Polaris''' is a [[tritave]]-repeating [[rank-2 temperament]] that tempers out the comma 177147/171875 in the 3.5.11 subgroup, the amount by which 7 [[5/3]]'s fall short of [[15/11]].
