<nowiki/>* In 11-limit CWE tuning, octave-reduced


There are two different mappings of the 11-limit. One is just called "pajara" and is slightly more complex but suffers almost no loss of accuracy compared to the 7-limit. It is best tuned flat of 22edo. The other, called "pajarous" to avoid confusion, loses some accuracy for 3 and 5. It is best tuned sharp of 22edo, and has the advantage of being supported by all patent vals that support pajara save [[12edo]]. However, pajarous equates [[12/11]] with [[10/9]], and the only tuning equating [[11/10]] with both is 22edo.

As with [[archy]], there is a tradeoff in pajara between accuracy of 3 and accuracy of 7. Unlike tunings of archy which often hover around 710-712 cents, however, pajara is conventionally tuned flat of 22edo - this is because tunings sharp of about 710 cents lose a large degree of accuracy in 5/4 and especially 6/5. However, all EDOs that support pajara (except for 12edo) are from 22edo or sharper.
