Quintosec family

This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

The quintosec family of temperaments tempers out the quintosec comma (monzo: [47 -15 -10⟩, ratio: 140 737 488 355 328 / 140 126 044 921 875).

Quintosec

Quintosec has a 1/5-octave period and a generator of around 831 cents such that two of them plus a period make the 3rd harmonic. However, an equivalent generator is the neutral third, in addition to the minimal generator, ~16/15. The ploidacot of this temperament is pentaploid dicot.

Quintosec is naturally a 2.3.5.11-subgroup temperament. It was documented as qintosec on the Temperament Finder, which was probably due to a typo. The original, intended spelling is restored here, and the distinctive no-u form is relegated to the lower-accuracy 7-limit extension considered below.

Decoid

Decoid tempers out 2401/2400, the breedsma, and 67108864/66976875, the decovulture comma, as well as [11 -10 -10 10⟩, the linus comma. It may be described as the 130 & 270 temperament, and its ploidacot is decaploid dicot. The hemitwelfth or neutral third can be used as a generator, but also ~8/7, ~16/15, or the marvel comma. 181\940 or 233\1210 makes for an excellent tuning choice.
