Father–3 equivalence continuum: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

The '''father–3 equivalence continuum''' is a [[equivalence continuum|continuum]] of [[5-limit]] [[regular temperament|temperaments]] which equate a number of [[16/15|classical diatonic semitones (16/15)]] with the [[32/27|Pythagorean minor third (32/27)]].

Note that because 3et is a record equal temperament in the [[2.5 subgroup]], the continuum can be conceptualized as the [[~~{{PAGENAME}}~~/Godtone's approach]|''augmented–dicot equivalence continuum'']], which Godtone argues is easier to understand, with characteristic 2.5-subgroup comma [[128/125]] as the interval with a single factor of 3 is [[25/24]].

Note that because 3et is a record equal temperament in the 2.5 subgroup, the continuum can be conceptualized as the [[Father–3 equivalence continuum/Godtone's approach]|''augmented–dicot equivalence continuum'']], which Godtone argues is easier to understand, with characteristic 2.5-subgroup comma [[128/125]] as the interval with a single factor of 3 is [[25/24]].

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy {{nowrap|(16/15)<sup>''n''</sup> ~ 32/27}}. Varying ''n'' results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to [[father]] as ''n'' approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite ''n'', the continuum describes the set of all [[5-limit]] temperaments supported by [[3edo]] due to it being the unique equal temperament that tempers both commas and thus tempers all combinations of them. The just value of ''n'' is approximately 2.63252…, and temperaments having ''n'' near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.

Because 3et is a record equal temperament in the 2.3 subgroup and (especially) the [[2.5 subgroup]], there is another way to conceptualize this continuum. The characteristic 2.5-subgroup comma is [[128/125]], and the interval with a single factor of 3 is [[25/24]]. As such, Godtone has conceptualized this continuum as ''augmented–dicot equivalence continuum''. See [[{{PAGENAME}}/Godtone's approach]].
