We see 11/8 as the 4th in Lydian dark major. In Meantone[7] this is an augmented fourth. The meantone extension representing 11/8 with an augmented fourth is called Meanenneadecal, referencing the fact that it is most at home in [[19edo]]. Tuning the scale to 19edo (or 12edo) will collapse it into a Meanenneadecal[7] diatonic scale. Similarly, tuning the scale to 15edo, 22edo, or 29edo will collapse it to Porcupine[7] scale. 27edo, 34edo, and 41edo are good tunings for the porcutone diatonic if tuning to an edo is desired.

We can see that the large step of Tetracot[7] is the medium step of the porcutone diatonic, and the small step of Tetracot[7] is the small step of the porcutone diatonic. The large step of the porcutone diatonic is the augmented second of tetracot[7].

As with the porcutone diatonic, tuning the porcutone chromatic to 19edo collapses it to the Meantone[12] (Flattone[12]) chromatic scale. Tuning it to 15edo, 22edo, or 29edo collapses it to Porcupine[8]. Step signatures, mappings and sizes for tunings to 27edo, 34edo, and 41edo are as follows:
