1-3-5-13 hexany

A 13-odd-limit Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 13/12 5/4 65/48 13/8 5/3 2/1, with steps of 13/12 15/13 13/12 6/5 40/39 6/5. There are 5-limit major and minor chords rooted on the 13/12 and 5/3 that can provide stable roots, but most of the individual steps fall between the cracks of the 12edo keyboard, making for quite xenharmonic melodies.
