m As a detemperament of 12et: I don't know about linking "MOS" as MOSDiagrams. Also generally lowercase is preferred.

Garibaldi is very naturally considered as a [[detemperament]] of the [[12edo|12 equal temperament]] (12et), where the chromatic scale becomes a near-equal [[5L 7s]]. The diagram on the right shows a 53-tone detempered scale, with a generator range of -26 to +26. 53 is the largest number of tones for a [[MOSDiagrams|MOS]] where the 12 categories never overlap.

Each pitch category of 12et is further divided into four or five qualities, separated by a [[pythagorean comma]], which represents the syntonic~septimal comma. Combining this division with the minor and major diatonic qualities of 12et, garibaldi can give up to ''eight'' qualities for each diatonic category. Taking thirds as an example:
