Since [[42edo]] is a multiple of [[7edo]], and not far beyond the last diatonic-incapable tuning [[35edo]], [[whitewood]] is still a legitimate mapping for it; since the 5th harmonic is also close to maximally far from just, this suggests [[qeema]]/[[tritikleismic]] temperament, using the 42bc [[val]] (42bcd if using the 7-limit), for which the generator is a near-just classic minor third ~[[6/5]] (with the very large errors in the 3rd and 5th harmonics canceling each other almost perfectly); this generator corresponds to one key right (which itself is the very flatly approximated major second ~[[9/8]]) plus one key down-right. Use of this generator plus some extra down-right key movements as needed gives rise to the ~~scale~~ [[2L 6s]]. [[Bryan Deister]] has demonstrated this in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/B90JT_SxSSE ''<nowiki>A Hunger Awakes - 42edo [short]</nowiki>''] (2026), although with different placement of MIDI note 0. The range is about 4¾ octaves, which slant up with the rows (as normal for whitewood mappings).
