Fokker blocks exist in tempered scales
Line 1: Line 1:
A '''wakalix''' is a [[Fokker block]] which is a Fokker block in more than one way, so that it belongs in more than one [[Fokker blocks#First definition of a Fokker block|arena]]. A Fokker block is a JI scale in a JI group of rank r, such that there are r-1 rank two temperaments which temper it to a MOS. If there are more than r-1 such temperaments, we have a wakalix, if there are more than r, it is a '''superwakalix'''; some of both kinds are cataloged below. An ordinary wakalix, which generates a rank r JI group and has exactly r different rank two temperaments tempering it to a MOS, is sometimes called an r-wakalix (triple wakalix, quadruple wakalix, etc.)
