Pure generator size 166.01 ¢
Pure period size 1200 ¢

Characteristic multival entry TBD

Omega-tricot is a temperament archetype where the generator is a submajor second, three of which stack to form a perfect fourth of 4/3, and the period is a 2/1 octave. Omega-tricot temperaments usually generate the 1L 6s and 7L 1s MOS structures. Omega-tricot temperaments produce "supraminor" and "submajor" intervals, splitting the chromatic semitone into three parts.

Notation

While there is no agreed-upon notation system for omega-tricot, the following is based on interpreting the generator as a submajor second. ^^C and vC# are enharmonic.

Temperament interpretations

Porcupine

In porcupine, the generator is 11/10, two generators make 6/5, and three make 4/3. This is tuned best with a considerably flat generator of about 162 ¢ or so, and naturally extends to the full 11-limit as in superpyth, so the minor seventh is 7/4.

Superpine

In superpine, the subminor seventh (C–vBb, 13 generators up) is mapped to 7/4, and the mappings for 3 and 5 are as in meantone, so −3 generators is 3/2 and −12 generators is 5/4. It is best tuned with a slightly sharp generator of about 168 ¢.
