This was followed by [[19edo]], after hearing ''Sunsrise'' by Supahstar Saga. 19 has its unique quirks that make it a good tuning for a lot of Western music, though I think its sound is best suited to songs with largely pentatonic melodies since the diatonic scale sounds quite loose to me. Augmented and diminished chords sound very weird, though, even more jarring than 31.

However, [[43edo]] has since won me over as my favourite all-around tuning for most modern Western music (at least that which doesn't require 12edo's enharmonic equivalences). The way major and minor thirds sound in 43 is much more sonorous than in 12, and extended harmonies such as augmented and diminished chords sound much more balanced than in 19 and 31. Additionally, most of the just intervals involving the 7th, ''and'' 11th, ''and'' 13th harmonics have consistent approximations in 43 equal.
