Magic tempers out not only 3125/3072 and 875/864, but also 225/224, 245/243, and 10976/10935. [[41edo]] is a good magic tuning, and 19 or 22 note MOS are possible scales. Five major thirds approximate 3/1. Twelve major thirds, less an octave, approximate 7/1. | Magic tempers out not only 3125/3072 and 875/864, but also 225/224, 245/243, and 10976/10935.

Magic, with its accurate fifths, works well with 9-limit harmony. It's more accurate than meantone and simpler than garibaldi. It's a little tricky to work with because in it fifths are a relatively complex interval and it doesn't naturally work with scales of around seven notes to the octave. | Magic, with its accurate fifths, works well with 9-limit harmony.

Aside from 3125/3072 and 875/864 muggles also tempers out 126/125 and 1323/1280. A good muggles tuning is [[19edo]], in which tuning it's the same thing as magic. Muggles works better for small scales than magic in the sense that 7 or 10 note MOS are reasonable choices.</pre></div> | Aside from 3125/3072 and 875/864 muggles also tempers out 126/125 and 1323/1280.
