Diminished (temperament): Difference between revisions

Diminished is specifically {648/625} and {36/35, 50/49} and has relevance in common-practice music, a consensus dating back to 2002. If you're interested in something else, create a different article. Rework to integrate the extension with prime 19.

[[12edo]] is an obvious tuning. Other possible tunings include [[16edo]] and [[28edo]], both of which having the interesting feature of being good in the 2.7.19 subgroup, so that the fifth is approximately [[28/19]]. [[28edo]] is notable as a tuning for the 5-limit temperament, dimipent, as it has very accurate [[5/4]]'s, being a [[strongly consistent circle]] of them.
