These tunings satisfy the property that two [[semifourth]] generators make a ''diatonic'' ([[5L 2s]]) fourth, i.e. any tuning where the semifourth is between 1\5 (240¢) and 3\14 (257.14¢).

The sizes of the generator, large step and small step of 5L 4s are as follows in various hypohard (2/1 ≤ L/s ≤ 3/1) tunings.

This range is notable for having many tunings that are close to being "eigentunings" (tunings that tune a certain JI interval exactly):
* 33edo semiquartal has close 7/5 (error -0.69¢), 9/5 (error -0.59¢) and 9/7 (error +1.28¢), thus can be used for the close 5:7:9 in the two Locrian-like modes 1|7 and 0|8
* 52edo semiquartal has close 22/19 (error +0.04¢)
* 19edo semiquartal has close 6/5 (error +0.15¢) and 28/27 (error +0.20¢)
==== Parahard and ultrahard ====
One important sub-range is given by stipulating that two semifourth generators must make a ''meantone'' fourth; i.e. that four fifths should approximate a [[5/4]] major third. This can be considered the [[19edo]] (4\19)-to-[[24edo]] (5\24) range, i.e. parahard semiquartal, which also contains [[43edo]] (9\43) and [[62edo]] (13\62). Parahard semiquartal can be given an RTT interpretation known as [[godzilla]].
