This is sometimes called '''negra''', and it is realized consistently in [[19edo]] and [[29edo]]. Other [[edo]]s which may be usable as a negri or negra tuning include [[9edo]], [[10edo]], [[28edo]], [[47edo]], and [[48edo]], all of which are [[consistent]] through (at least) the [[5-odd-limit]], since in the broadest sense, negri is defined as tempering out the [[negri comma]] in the [[5-limit]]. | ||
Negri forms 9-note and 10-note [[mos]] | Negri forms 9-note and 10-note [[mos scale]]s, Negri[9] and Negri[10], at [[1L 8s]] and [[9L 1s]] respectively. In [[19edo]], the negri generator is the diatonic half-step of 2\19, which allows these mosses to be written fairly simply in conventional notation. For example, the ssssLssss mode of 19edo could be written as E F Gb G# A B C Db D# E. This mode is particularly useful as it has identical ssss pentachords (analogous to the [[tetrachord]]s of classical Greek music theory) on the 1/1 and 3/2. It is also notable in that a subset of these notes form the E double harmonic major scale, E F G# A B C D# E, which features in a wide variety of world musical traditions. In fact, all modes of Negri[9] and Negri[10] contain at least one mode of the double harmonic scale as a subset. | ||
Another useful mode of Negri[9] is Lssssssss, which in 19edo would be A B C Db D# E F Gb G# A. This has a minor triad (A–C–E) for a tonic chord, which can be extended to a 7-limit utonal tetrad (A–C–E–D#), as well as 7-limit otonal tetrads on E and F that can function as, respectively, a dominant seventh chord and a German augmented sixth chord. This scale also contains the popular Hungarian minor mode of the double harmonic scale, A B C D# E F G# A. | Another useful mode of Negri[9] is Lssssssss, which in 19edo would be A B C Db D# E F Gb G# A.

Negri[10] also has a number of useful features. One of these features is the fact that it makes 4:5:6 and 10:12:15 share the same "shape" of generic intervals in the scale (as in other rank-2 decatonic scales such as [[pajara]] and [[blackwood]] scales; this is because 5/4 and 6/5 get tempered to the same thing in [[10edo]]). | Negri[10] also has a number of useful features.
