:: I also think "ha/ba" is a decent enough replacement for the "la/sa" pair. It uses consonants no color uses, it's derived from italian "alta/bassa" (except with "h" added for a consonant, also invoking "high") which refers to both sets' fifth-shift and pitch relative to the Central row. I won't get to check for conflicts with "b" as the flat sign nor "8va/8vb" for a while, however.

::: Sawa 2nd becomes bw2, which looks like a flat wa 2nd. IMO a little too confusing. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 10:11, 8 August 2024 (UTC) | ::: Sawa 2nd becomes bw2, which looks like a flat wa 2nd.

: After lengthy discussion in XA Discord, fo/fu/fa and so/su/sa didn't seem clearly better than the current system, which is rather entrenched at this point. But the suffix "-ti" has been officially adopted. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 09:28, 28 October 2024 (UTC) | |||

Za5 could refer to 5edo detempered using the 2.3.7 subgroup, making 1/1 8/7 4/3 3/2 7/4 2/1. Wa5 would be 1/1 9/8 4/3 3/2 16/9 2/1. Yaza19 would be 19edo detempered using the 2.3.5.7 subgroup. | |||
If there were a rigorous algorithm for finding the "best" ratio for a certain edostep, then the resulting scale could be *the* yaza19 (or whatever) scale. But one can prioritize minimizing the odd limit vs. maximizing the accuracy differently. Thus there are multiple plausible yaza19 scales, and "yaza19" would refer to a category of scales, not just one. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 09:28, 28 October 2024 (UTC) | |||
