The [[period]] is 1/3 octave, and this is what is used for 5/4, the classical major third. The [[generator]] can be taken as a fifth or a semitone, and [[12edo]], with its excellent fifth, is an obvious tuning for [[5-limit]] augmented, though a sharper fifth might be preferred to go with the sharp third. Its [[ploidacot]] is triploid monocot.

Septimal augmented, a.k.a. augene, tempers out [[64/63]] and [[126/125]]. It may be described as the {{nowrap| 12 & 15 }} temperament. [[27edo]] and [[39edo]] in the 39d val make for good tunings. In the 11-limit, it tempers together [[7/5]] and [[11/8]], and 27edo in the 27e val may be recommended as a tuning.
