This is the rank-2 notation,<span style=""> for a generator of indeterminate cents</span>. The edo notation uses ups and downs to represent one EDOstep. If an edo tempers out porcupine, it must be sharp-3, sharp-6, sharp-9, etc. (See the scale tree on the [[EDO|EDOs]] page.) The notation is identical for sharp-3 edos<span style=""> (15, 22, 29, etc.). For sharp-6 edos (e.g. 30 or 72), simply double all ups and downs. The generator is vvM2. The genchain is P1 - vvM2 - ^^m3 - P4 - vv5... or C - vvD - ^^Eb - F - vvG... Sharp-9 edos are rarely used, but the generator would be v</span><span style="font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: super;">3</span><span style="">M2. </span>
