* The large step is a "meantone", somewhere between near-10/9 (as in [[32edo]]) and near-9/8 (as in [[18edo]]).

* The major mosthird (made of two large steps) is a roughly [[meantone]]-sized major third, thus is a stand-in for the classical diatonic major third.

Parasoft smitonic tunings have both minor fifths and major fifths about equally off a just perfect fifth, and they approximate diatonic structure and 5-limit harmony fairly well otherwise. For this reason, parasoft might be the most accessible smitonic tuning range.

Parasoft smitonic EDOs include [[18edo]], [[25edo]], and [[43edo]].
