* '''Magimajor''' and '''magiminor''', for thirds, range between about 375-382 and 320-327 cents, respectively. These are flat of the 5-limit thirds, and appear in 5-limit temperaments where the chromatic semitone 25/24 is tempered narrow, like in [[garibaldi]], [[magic]] (hence the name), or the minor third in [[flattone]]. Magimajor seconds range from 171-178 cents, and thus contain the upper part of the "equable heptatonic" region. For a given [[neutral]] interval ''k'' in cents, the magimajor version is found at around k+28, and the magiminor version is found at around k-28.

* '''Pentamajor''' and '''pentaminor''', for thirds, range between about 382-394 and 308-320 cents, respectively. These are the regions containing 5-limit intervals. Pentamajor seconds range from 178-190 cents. For a given [[neutral]] interval ''k'' in cents, the pentamajor version is found at around k+35, and the pentaminor version is found at around k-35.
