The second comma of the [[Normal lists|normal comma list]] defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. That means 64/63, the Archytas comma, for porcupine, 36/35, the septimal quarter tone, for hystrix, 50/49, the jubilisma, for hedgehog, and 49/48, the slendro diesis, for nautilus. | The second comma of the [[Normal lists|normal comma list]] defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at.

=Porcupine= | |||
Porcupine, with wedgie <<3 5 -6 1 -18 -28||, uses six of its minor tone generator steps to get to 7/4. For this to work you need a small minor tone such as [[22edo]] provides, and once again 3/22 is a good tuning choice, though we might pick in preference 8/59, 11/81, or 19/140 for our generator. | Porcupine, with wedgie <<3 5 -6 1 -18 -28||, uses six of its minor tone generator steps to get to 7/4.

=Hystrix= | |||
Hystrix, with wedgie <<3 5 1 1 -7 -12||, provides a less complex avenue to the 7-limit. Unfortunately in temperaments as in life you get what you pay for, and hystrix, for which a generator of 2/15 or 9/68 can be used, is a temperament for the adventurous souls who have probably already tried [[15edo]]. They can try the even sharper fifth of hystrix in [[68edo]] and see how that suits. | Hystrix, with wedgie <<3 5 1 1 -7 -12||, provides a less complex avenue to the 7-limit.

=Hedgehog= | |||
Hedgehog, with wedgie <<6 10 10 2 -1 -5||, has a period 1/2 octave and a generator which can be taken to be 9/7 instead of 10/9. It also tempers out 245/243, the sensamagic comma. 22et provides the obvious tuning, but if you are looking for an alternative, you could try the <146 232 338 411| val with generator 10/73, or you could try 164 cents if you are fond of round numbers. The 14 note MOS gives scope for harmony while stopping well short of 22. | Hedgehog, with wedgie <<6 10 10 2 -1 -5||, has a period 1/2 octave and a generator which can be taken to be 9/7 instead of 10/9.
