Optimal ET sequence: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

Many [[regular temperaments]] documented on the wiki are accompanied with an '''optimal ~~GPV~~ sequence'''. ~~This~~ gives [[generalized patent val]]s (GPVs) for [[equal temperament]]s which support the temperament, where each subsequent GPV included improves upon the [[TE error]] of the previous GPV.

Many [[regular temperaments]] documented on the wiki are accompanied with an '''optimal ET sequence''', which suggests some useful [[equal tuning]]s to tune the temperament as well as [[mos scale]]s available. Technically, it gives [[generalized patent val]]s (GPVs) for [[equal temperament]]s which [[support]] the temperament, where each subsequent GPV included improves upon the [[TE error]] of the previous GPV, though no standard beginning cutoff to the list has been specified.

No standard beginning cutoff to the list has been specified.

Optimal GPV sequences can be computed using [[Flora Canou]]'s [https://github.com/FloraCanou/temperament_evaluator Temperament Evaluator], using the <code>et_sequence</code> function. For example, here is how the optimal GPV sequence for [[No-threes subgroup temperaments #Yer_.28rank_3.29|Yer temperament]] was determined, by providing its comma basis and subgroup:

<~~pre~~>

import ~~et_sequence_error~~ as ete

import et_sequence as ete

import numpy as np

ete.~~et_sequence_error~~(np.array([[7,-4],[-1,1],[-1,-1],[-1,0],[1,1]]), subgroup=[2,11,13,17,19])

ete.et_sequence(np.array([[7, -4], [-1, 1], [-1, -1], [-1, 0], [1, 1]]), subgroup=[2, 11, 13, 17, 19])

</~~pre~~>

</syntaxhighlight>

Which produces the list: 13, 24, 33, 37, 46, 57, 70, 127.
