The additional accidental has an equivalent ratio, found by adding the pergen's 3-limit comma onto the ratio. Blackwood's comma is 256/243, and Blackwood's ^1 is 81/80 or equivalently, 16/15.

Not all Blackwood-like pergens are of the form (P8/m, ^1). In the last section, we saw that demeter's pergen is (P8, P5, vm3/2). Tempering out 256/243 as well, the pergen becomes (P8/5, vm3/2).
It is not yet known if all Blackwood-like pergens are of the form (P8/m, ^1).


It's possible to have a fifth-8ve pergen with an independent 5th, but there will be small intervals of about 20¢. Here are two such:

Unlike Blackwood, the ups and downs are in the perchain, not the genchain. It would be possible to notate Blackwood similarly. The pergen would be not (P8/5, ^1), but (P8/5, M3). The perchain would be C D^^ Fv G^ Bbvv C and the genchain would be C E G#... But this is not recommended, because it would cause "missing notes" (see next section).

A Blackwood-like pergen should never have an uninflected genchain.
