52edo (demonstrated to work but awaiting approval): Move the 0 point to Bryan Deister's standard of lower left corner; also mention that some notes are cut off on the right edge in the video
Unnamed Temperaments: Got approval for the 51edo and 52edo layouts. Also added a potential double-octave scale to the 51edo layout text.

[[Bryan Deister]] has used a layout for [[51edo]] in which the generator is a mid major second at 8\51, which maps in between ~[[10/9]] and ~[[9/8]] and is distinct from both, A possible constitution of this interval in 51edo is the septendecimal major second ~[[512/459]] (~|9 -3 0 0 0 0 -1⟩), which maps correctly to 8\51 and is very close by direct approximation. Two of these generators make a slightly flat ~[[5/4]] Ptolmeic major third, and nine of these generators make a slightly sharp ~[[8/3]] perfect eleventh. [https://x31eq.com/temper-pyscript/ Graham Breed's x31eq Temperament Finder] gives no name for this temperament; it is 19 & 51 in the 2.3.5.17 subgroup. Octaves alternate between near and far, but the range is just one missing note #47 short of being 5 full octaves, which compares favorably with the Antidiatonic ([[Mavila]]/[[Undecimation]]) and [[Porky]] mappings, and is competitive with the [[Slendric]] mapping. (Another possibility would be to move the first note 0 up and left, which would instead put the missing note in the first octave.) This layout is demonstrated in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5pM8OC0fV98 ''51edo improv''] (2025), with some additional notes outside the 5 (almost) full octaves cut off in and near the upper left and lower right corners due to the use of only 2 MIDI channels.

=== 52edo (demonstrated to work) ===


[[Bryan Deister]] has used a layout for [[52edo]] in which the generator is 9\52, as ~[[9/8]] but mapped by direct approximation rather than as the version mapped by the patent val or by the 52b val, which means that it  has to be constituted as (3♭&nbsp;×&nbsp;3♯)&nbsp;/&nbsp;8 to make use of the dual-fifth feature of 52edo. Two of these map to a ~[[14/11]] major third, as in [[Pentacircle clan|Pentacircle]] but for the direct approximation mapping of ~9/8. The upward generator is ~[[16/15]]. Octaves slant down and then wrap around, but the compass is 5 full octaves, with no missed notes, which is competitive with the Diatonic and Neutral Thirds layouts. This layout is demonstrated in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/lNJCZz7EjL0 ''microtonal improvisation in 52edo''] (2025); in the video, some notes are cut off at the right edge due to the use of only 2 MIDI channels.
