Using its best (and sharp) fifth, it tempers out 250/243, making it a variant of [[Porcupine family|porcupine temperament]]. Using its alternative flat fifth, it tempers out 16875/16384, making it a negri tuning. It also tempers out 2187/2000, resulting in a temperament where three minor whole tones make up a fifth. | ||
