== Septiquarter ==
== Septiquarter ==
Septiquarter tempers out [[420175/419904]] and may be described as the {{nowrap| 94 & 99 }} temperament. Its [[ploidacot]] is epsilon-heptacot. [[99edo]] makes for an excellent tuning, and [[292edo]] an even better one. [[94edo]] and [[104edo]] in the 104c val are also among the possibilities.

== Ketchup ==
== Ketchup ==
Ketchup may be described as the {{nowrap| 46 & 94 }} temperament. It has a semi-octave period and a generator for a syntonic~septimal comma, four of which plus a period gives the perfect fifth; its ploidacot is diploid gamma-tetracot. [[140edo]] is an obvious tuning for this temperament.

Leapday tempers out the leapday comma, {{monzo| 31 -21 1 }}, in the 5-limit, mapping 5/4 to the triple-augmented unison or equivalently the minor third and two dieses. In the 7-limit it can be described as the {{nowrap| 29 & 46 }} temperament, which tempers out the hemifamity and [[686/675]] (senga), and extends [[leapfrog]].  
Leapday tempers out [[686/675]], the senga, in addition to the hemifamity comma, and may be described as the {{nowrap| 29 & 46 }} temperament. It extends [[leapfrog]], such that [[7/4]] is found by 15 generators up, as a double-augmented fifth (a major sixth and a diesis). 5/4 is found by a tritone above that, as a triple-augmented unison (a minor third and two dieses). [[46edo]] itself is an excellent tuning for this.  


It has an alternative extension called [[porwell temperaments #Polypyth|polypyth]], which tempers out the same 5-limit comma as leapday, but with the porwell ([[6144/6125]]) rather than the hemifamity comma tempered out.
Leapday is more notable in the higher limits than the lower, as it nails the 13-limit pretty well from identifying [[14/11]] by a major third and [[13/11]] by a minor third, tempering out not only [[352/351]] and [[364/363]] but [[91/90]], [[121/120]], [[169/168]] and [[196/195]]. It can be further extended to include the [[17/1|17th]] and [[23/1|23rd]] [[harmonic]]s. Adding 17 would fix the valid diamond monotone tuning to 46edo, however.

Mystery tempers out [[50421/50000]] and may be described as the {{nowrap| 29 & 58 }} temperament. It has a 1\29 period and primes 5, 7, 11 and 13 are all reached by one generator step. [[145edo]] or [[232edo]] are good candidates for tunings.

== Hemidromeda ==
== Hemidromeda ==
Hemidromeda may be described as the {{nowrap| 29 & 111 }} temperament. The name ''hemidromeda'' comes from "hemi-" (Ancient Greek for "one half") and ''[[andromeda]]'', because the generator is 1/2 of andromeda's perfect twelfth (~3/1, about 1902.4 cents).
Hemidromeda may be described as the {{nowrap| 29 & 111 }} temperament. The name ''hemidromeda'' comes from "hemi-" (Ancient Greek for "one half") and ''[[andromeda]]'', because the generator is 1/2 of andromeda's perfect twelfth (~3/1, about 1902.4 cents); the ploidacot for this temperament is alpha-dicot.

Countriton may be described as the {{nowrap| 51c & 53 }] temperament. It splits the [[24/1|24th harmonic]] into nine tritone generators; its ploidacot is thus delta-enneacot. Among the possible tunings are [[157edo]] and [[210edo]], as well as [[104edo]] in the 104c val.

== Artoneutral ==
== Artoneutral ==
Artoneutral is generated by an artoneutral third of ~11/9 (or a tendoneutral sixth of ~18/11) and can be described as the {{nowrap| 87 & 94 }} temperament. [[181edo]] may be recommended as a tuning.  
Artoneutral can be described as the {{nowrap| 87 & 94 }} temperament. It is generated by an artoneutral third of ~11/9 (or a tendoneutral sixth of ~18/11), nine of which make the [[12/1|12th harmonic]]; its ploidacot is thus beta-enneacot. [[181edo]] may be recommended as a tuning.

== Quanic ==
== Quanic ==
Quanic may be described as the {{nowrap| 94 & 111 }} temperament. It splits the perfect fifth into five generators which in the 13-limit extension may be taken as ~13/12; its ploidacot is thus pentacot. [[205edo]] may be recommended as a tuning.
