Lumatone mapping for 72edo: Difference between revisions

{{Lumatone EDO mapping|n=72|start=45|xstep=7|ystep=1}}

[[Bryan Deister]] has demonstrated a mapping of [[72edo]] as nine rings of [[8edo]] going right, offset so as to also produce the scale [[11L 9s (4/1-equivalent)]], in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/VwVp3RVao_k ''microtonal improvisation in 72edo''] (2025). While this mapping works to get as many notes as possible of 72edo into 280 keys (yielding a range of over 3⅔ octaves, it was designed to work to support specific temperaments. The close approximations of ~[[6/5]] as 19\72 and ~[[5/4]] as 23\72 (if using note 0 as the root) are next to each other and not far from the root right and somewhat down. From note 0, moving right and somewhat down between the note 1 and note 6 keys to reach 14\72 yields a highly accurate ~[[8/7]], the generator of [[Gamelismic_clan#Guiron|Guiron]], [[Mothra]], and [[Slendric]]. Repeating this move twice more yields the highly accurate ~[[3/2]] as 42\72; repeating it once more after that to reach 56\72 yields an almost-just ~[[12/7]]; from there, moving one key to the right yields the primary generator of [[Marvel]] temperament, ~[[15/8]], as 65\72. The down-right generator 5\72 ([[20/19]] ~ [[21/20]] ~ [[22/21]]) matches [[Harry]] and [[Marvel_temperaments#Marvolo|Marvolo]].
