Below is a list of equal temperaments which contain a 4L 5s scale using generators between 422.7 and 475.5¢.
Below is a list of equal temperaments which contain a 4L 5s scale using generators between 422.7 and 475.5¢.
{{Scale tree|depth=7|Comments=13/6: [[Bohlen–Pierce–Stearns]] is in this region; 22/13: Essentially just 7/3}}
{{MOS tuning spectrum
| 13/6 = [[Bohlen–Pierce–Stearns]] is in this region
| 22/13 = Essentially just 7/3

Analogously to how the diatonic scale equalizes approaching [[7edo]] and its small steps collapse to 0 in [[5edo]], this scale equalizes approaching [[9edt]] and its small steps collapse in [[4edt]]; therefore, temperaments setting the 7/3 generator to precisely 7\9edt and to precisely 3\4edt are analogs of [[whitewood]] and [[blackwood]] respectively. However, unlike for the diatonic scale, the just point is not close to the center of the tuning range, but approximately 1/4 of the way between 9edt and 4edt, being closely approximated by 37\[[48edt]] and extremely closely approximated by 118\[[153edt]].
