== Ripple ==
== Ripple ==
The generator of ripple is a semitone representing 27/25, five of which give 4/3, and eight of which give 8/5. This means that 27/25 is severely flattened, so that the characteristic damage is a strongly flat-tempered [[4/3|fourth]] reached at 5 semitones. Interestingly, in optimal tunings, the major third of ~5/4 does not tend to be damaged much sharpwards as one might expect from the equivalence, and is in practice often even flat, so that prime 3 takes on practically the whole damage of the 5-limit equivalence, for which it has the advantage of being the simplest so still having a good chance at psychoacoustic viability. As a result though, the mapping of ~9/8 is often inconsistent, so that ripple can in practice be thought of as a [[dual-fifth temperament]] unless you use tunings close to [[12edo]].
The generator of ripple is a semitone representing 27/25, five of which give 4/3, and eight of which give 8/5. The ploidacot of ripple is omega-pentacot. This means that 27/25 is severely flattened, so that the characteristic damage is a strongly flat-tempered fourth reached at 5 semitones. Interestingly, in optimal tunings, the major third of ~5/4 does not tend to be damaged much sharpwards as one might expect from the equivalence, and is in practice sometimes even flat, so that prime 3 takes on practically the whole damage of the 5-limit equivalence, for which it has the advantage of being the simplest so still having a good chance at psychoacoustic viability. As a result though, the mapping of ~9/8 is often very flat, so that ripple can in practice be thought of as a [[dual-fifth temperament]] unless you use tunings close to [[12edo]].


Reasonable [[patent val]] tunings not appearing in the optimal ET sequence are [[35edo]] and [[47edo]].

Septimal ripple interprets the generator as a very flat ~15/14, so that 3 and 5 are flat and 7 is sharp; of these, 3 is the most damaged, but is also the simplest, so is still viable as an approximation. Due to the sharp 7 and flatter 3, ~21/16 can be fairly in-tune, acting as the alternate fourth in a dual-fourth interpretation, so that the inconsistent but more accurate ~16/9 is reached as ~(21/16)⋅(4/3) = ~7/4, though this assumes you are putting the most damage on 3 as to get larger primes more in tune. This has another advantage, specific to the 11-limit: this accurate but inconsistent ~9/8 (which is usually just to slightly sharp) can find the neutral third ~11/9 with reasonable accuracy.
