In the | In the 5-limit, it tempers out the same commas as 53edo, including [[15625/15552]], [[32805/32768]], [[amity comma|1600000/1594323]], [[semicomma|2109375/2097152]], and [[vulture comma|10485760000/10460353203]]. | ||
In the 7-limit, it tempers out 1029/1024, 10976/10935, 117649/116640, 235298/234375 and [[Meter comma|703125/702464]] This makes it among other things an excellent tuning for [[Schismatic family #Guiron|guiron]] and [[Gamelismic clan #Tritikleismic|tritikleismic]] temperaments, as well as a possible tuning for metric temperament. | |||
In the 11-limit, it tempers out not only [[385/384]], [[441/440]], [[3025/3024]], [[4000/3993]], [[4375/4356]], and [[6250/6237]], but – in a first for EDOs that are multiples of 53– both [[Nexuma|1771561/1769472]] and [[Quartisma|117440512/117406179]], which, in turn means that [[Symbiosma|19712/19683]] is tempered out as well. | |||
In the 13-limit it tempers out [[325/324]], [[364/363]], [[625/624]], [[676/675]], [[1001/1000]], [[1575/1573]], [[2080/2079]], [[cantonisma|10985/10976]] and 13720/13689. | |||
In the 17-limit tempers out [[273/272]], 375/374, 595/594, 715/714, [[936/935]], [[1089/1088]], 8624/8619 and 15379/15300. | |||
In the 19-limit, it is known to temper out 343/342 and 361/360, but since it is inconsistent in the 19-limit, there are other potential mappings available that temper out different commas. | |||
It also provides the [[optimal patent val]] for 11-limit guiron and 13-limit tritikleismic, as well as the 13-limit rank three temperament [[Gamelismic_family #Portending|portending]]. | |||
In addition to the above, 159edo actually tempers out the 7-limit [[termite comma]] and the 13-limit [[chalmersia]], as well as the 17-limit [[sparkisma]], the latter of which is also tempered out by 53edo despite it having a different mapping for 17. | In addition to the above, 159edo actually tempers out the 7-limit [[termite comma]] and the 13-limit [[chalmersia]], as well as the 17-limit [[sparkisma]], the latter of which is also tempered out by 53edo despite it having a different mapping for 17. | ||
Another notable temperament supported by 159 is [[ | Another notable temperament supported by 159 is [[Turkish maqam music temperaments|yarman temperament]], with a generator of 2\159 which can be taken as an approximate 105/104. 159 supplies the optimal patent val for 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19-limit yarman, so they are very closely associated. Curiously, the temperament does not temper out 1029/1024, however. Yarman temperament has [[MOS]] of 79 and 80 notes to the octave, and the 79-note MOS has been proposed by Ozan Yarman as a tuning standard for [[Arabic, Turkish, Persian|arabic/turkish/persian]] music. | ||
