[[Bryan Deister]] has demonstrated a [[6L 1s]] (10:3 step ratio) mapping for [[63edo]] in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/IYLzF4ogl_w ''microtonal improvisation in 63edo''] (2025). The generator 10\93 is the quasi-meantone ~[[19/17]], which is composed of highly inaccurate harmonics whose errors nearly cancel out, rendering it just slightly flat; two of them make a somewhat flat classic major third ~[[5/4]]. (In contrast to actual [[meantone]] temperament, 63edo represents ~19/17, ~[[10/9]], and ~[[9/8]] as distinct intervals.) Although 10\63 can reach all of the notes of 63edo without the need for a second generator, a second generator 7\63 (upward, as a tridecimal supraminor/neutral second that functions as both ~[[13/12]] and ~[[14/13]]) is convenient for quick access to additional common intervals — for instance, three rightward generators plus one upward generator reach the just slightly sharp fifth ~[[3/2]]; while five rightward generators minus one upwards generator reach a mildly sharp minor sixth ~[[8/5]]. The range is somewhat over four octaves (which slant up mildly) with no missed notes and no repeated notes.
