User:Squib/List of tunings

This page is a catalog of tunings according to my in-progress system of music theory and describing tunings.

Colors	Diagram	Ploidacot name	Supported temperaments	notes
1		haploid monocot	pythagorean	note about chain-of-fifths temperaments such as meantone
2		dicot	neutral, hemififths	strong 2.3.11
2		alpha-dicot	semaphore, monzismic	3.5 fourths ≈ 11/4
2		diploid	diaschismic	average of meantone and schismic 5/4
3		tricot	slendric	strong 2.3.7
3		alpha-tricot	2197/2187 (subset of kleismic)	strong 2.3.25.13 (splits 9/8 into 24:25:26:27)
3		beta-tricot	cake (45/44), porcupine, 4000/3993	good 11/10 but not 5 or 11 (cake is one way to pretend you have both) (gravity doubles it and does have both)
3		triploid	augmented	12edo major third
4		tetracot	tetracot	2.3.5.11
4		alpha-tetracot	buzzard
4		beta-tetracot	99/98 243/242	2.3.7.11
4		gamma-tetracot		has a major third as flat as 12edo's is sharp
4		diploid dicot	hemipyth	combination of all 2-color tunings
4		diploid alpha-dicot	shrutar
4		tetraploid	diminished	12edo minor third
5		pentacot		4.8 fifths ≈ 7/1 (0.5¢ error)
5		alpha-pentacot	magic
5		beta-pentacot
5		gamma-pentacot	amity	very accurate 2.3.5.7 but the 5 and 7 are awkward in opposite directions
5		delta-pentacot
5		pentaploid
6		hexacot
6		alpha-hexacot	kleismic	2.3.5.13
6		beta-hexacot	gravity	2.3.5.11
6		gamma-hexacot
6		delta-hexacot
6		epsilon-hexacot
6		diploid tricot
6		diploid alpha-tricot
6		diploid beta-tricot
6		triploid dicot
6		triploid alpha-tricot
6		hexaploid
7		alpha-heptacot	orwell
9		wau-enneacot	superkleismic
15		something-15cot	luna
