The scale D E F G A B C has step pattern MsMLMsM, which tempers to sssLsss under Porcupine (M=s) and LsLLLsL under Meantone (M=L).
The scale D E F G A B C has step pattern MsMLMsM, which tempers to sssLsss under Porcupine (M=s) and LsLLLsL under Meantone (M=L).


Raising an F to an F♯ replaces ~6/5 with ~11/9, i.e., it raises the F by ~55/54, which is tempered out in Porcupine, so the scale D E F♯ G A B C tempers to sssLsss under Porcupine as before, but to LLsLLsL under Meantone (Mixolydian mode rather than Dorian as before), so will call the mode approximating the ratios 10/9 11/9 4/3 3/2 5/3 9/5 2/1 Mixolydian symmetric minor, and use the mode to name the scale as a whole.
Raising an F to an F♯ replaces ~6/5 with ~11/9, i.e., it raises the F by ~55/54, which is tempered out in [[Porcupine]], so the scale D E F♯ G A B C tempers to sssLsss under Porcupine as before, but to LLsLLsL under Meantone (Mixolydian mode rather than Dorian as before), so will call the mode approximating the ratios 10/9 11/9 4/3 3/2 5/3 9/5 2/1 Mixolydian symmetric minor, and use the mode to name the scale as a whole.


To calculate the mode numbers for Tables 4.2-4.5, the mode numbers of their temperings to Porcupine and to Meantone were added, ordered, and renumbered. When two modes are tied, small changes in tuning will affect their order. Given that Ptolemismic Porcupine is more accurate than Ptolemismic Meantone, the Porcupine mode number is weighted more heavily to determine the mode order in the event of any ties.

Given that Ptolemismic Porcupine is more accurate than Ptolemismic Meantone, the Porcupine mode number is weighted more heavily to determine the mode order in the event of any ties. Modes are named via the [[Tetracot]][7] [[MODMOS]] they temper to when [[243/242]] is tempered out (i.e., the difference between [[11/9]] and [[27/22]]), as in [[27edo]], [[34edo]], and [[41edo]].
