When rewriting the page Flora missed the important fact , I moved it to where the temperaments are actually defined since it is now a sequence of mos scales. |
given that it's now just a term |

The [[The Jacobins #Pure Bastille|1407eff & 1789 temperament]], named ''pure bastille'', tempers out the [[jacobin comma]], which brings two great French Revolution terms in one temperament. However, from a just intonation perspective, such temperament may be too complex, even for edos in the thousands. On the other hand, taking patent vals of 1407edo and 1789edo in the full 13-limit produces a temperament whose fifth is mapped to [[112/75]], a relatively simple interval on this scale. Comma basis for this version of bastille is {384912/384475, 41765625/41746432, 4501875/4499456, 540078539/540000000}. The common thing between the two temperaments is that fifteen stacked generators lead to [[5/4]]. Given the precision, such a characteristic is quite remarkable for edos in the thousands to support. | The [[The Jacobins #Pure Bastille|1407eff & 1789 temperament]], named ''pure bastille'', tempers out the [[jacobin comma]], which brings two great French Revolution terms in one temperament.
