One approach to ed8/3 tunings is the use of the 3:4:5:6:(8) chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in [[meantone]]. | One approach to ed8/3 tunings is the use of the 3:4:5:6:(8) chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in [[meantone]]. | ||

Whereas in meantone it takes four [[3/2]] to get to [[5/1]], here it takes twelve octaves to get to [[134217718/98415]] (tempering out the schisma). So, doing this yields 7-, 10- and 17- or 13-, 16- or 19-note [[mos scale]]s. While the notes are rather farther apart, the scheme is uncannily similar to the [[mohajira]] (within 8/3) temperaments. [[Joseph Ruhf]] calls this the ''Macromohajira Bolivarian mode''. | Whereas in meantone it takes four [[3/2]] to get to [[5/1]], here it takes twelve octaves to get to [[134217718/98415]] (tempering out the schisma).
