Archytas clan: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

The '''archytas clan''' (or '''archy family''') tempers out the [[64/63|Archytas comma]], 64/63. This means that four stacked 3/2 fifths equal a 9/7 major third. (Note the similarity in function to [[81/80]] in meantone, where four stacked 3/2 fifths equal a 5/4 major third.) This leads to tunings with 3s and 7s quite sharp, such as those of [[~~22edo|~~22EDO]].

Adding 50/49 to the list of commas gives pajara, 36/35 gives dominant, 16/15 gives mother, 126/125 gives augene, 28/27 gives blacksmith, 245/243 gives superpyth, 250/243 gives porcupine, 686/675 gives beatles, 360/343 gives schism, 3125/3087 gives passion, 2430/2401 gives quasisuper, and 4375/4374 gives modus.

Discussed under their respective 5-limit families are [[Father family #Mother|mother]], [[Meantone family #Dominant|dominant]], [[Augmented family #Augene|augene]], [[Porcupine family|porcupine]], [[Diaschismic family #Pajara|pajara]], [[Kleismic family #Catalan|catalan]], [[Tetracot family #Modus|modus]], and [[Immunity family #Immunized|immunized]]. The rest are considered below.
