Surprisingly, A-Team tunings in this range can approximate some high-limit JI chords. The most plentiful consonant triad is 4:9:21 or 8:18:21, followed by 13:17:19 and 4:5:9. A-Team[13] in the following tuning has five copies of 4:5:9:13:17:21, three copies of 4:5:9:11, two copies of 4:5:9:11:13, two copies of 4:5:9:13:17:19:21, and one copy of 4:9:(15):21:23. The 13-note [[MODMOS]] given by flattening just the seventh and eighth degrees of the LsLssLsLssLss mode of A-Team[13] by the 13-generator interval (~25.5 cents) gives the entire 4:5:9:11:13:17:19:21:23 otonal chord over a single root. | Surprisingly, A-Team tunings in this range can approximate some high-limit JI chords.

Extending the chain beyond 13 notes can give good (though irregular) mappings of 3/2 and 7/4 in the "better" tunings. | Extending the chain beyond 13 notes can give good (though irregular) mappings of 3/2 and 7/4 in the "better" tunings. |
