The most efficient mapping for [[49edo]], having a range of 5¼ octaves (which slope down moderately) with no missed notes and no repeated notes, is [[Bryan Deister]]'s [[4L 3s]] (10:3 step ratio) mapping that functions for both a rank-2 or rank-3 [[archipelago]]-related temperament and [[catalan]] temperament, demonstrated in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/34w7euOF-Ss ''49edo improv''] (2026). The rank-2 archipelago-related temperament (which is not currently on the archipelago page) uses one key right (10\49) as a slightly sharp tridecimal semifourth ~[[15/13]] (in the 49f val) for its generator; two of them make the fairly flat fourth ~[[4/3]]; four of them make the sharp septimal minor seventh ~[[7/4]]; six of them (after octave reduction) make a slightly sharp septimal minor third ~[[7/6]]; thirteen of them (after more octave reduction) make a near-just undecimal minor sixth ~[[11/7]]; and fourteen of them make a sharp classic minor seventh ~[[9/5]]. Although this is a respectable list of intervals, ~~by itself~~ the rank-2 version of the temperament does not make a very good [[MOS]] scale — instead it makes for scales in which the small interval is only 1\49. Therefore, for facility in making scales, including the aforementioned 4L 3s, a second generator is needed (thus elevating this to a rank-3 temperament that tempers out [[364/363]], [[540/539]], and [[847/845]]); that generator uses one key down-right (3\49) as the slightly sharp classic chromatic semitone ~[[25/24]], which 49edo ~~actually~~ uses as a diatonic semitone. Catalan uses one key right plus one key down-right (13\49) as a slightly sharp classic minor third for its generator; two of them make a very flat Axirabian paraminor fifth ~[[16/11]]; four of them (after octave reduction) make a somewhat sharp classic chromatic semitone ~[[25/24]]; five of them make a mildly sharp classic major third ~[[5/4]]; six of them make a sharp fifth ~[[3/2]]; seven of them make a sharp classic minor seventh ~[[9/5]]; eight of them (after more octave-reduction) make a mildly flat undecimal neutral second ~[[12/11]]; and ten of them make a near-just undecimal minor sixth ~[[11/7]]. Catalan does not need a second generator to produce usable MOS scales, including the aforementioned 4L 3s.
