===Amity===
===Amity===
The generator for amity temperament is the acute minor third, which means an ordinary 6/5 minor third raised by an 81/80 comma to 243/200, and from this it derives its name. Aside from the ragisma it tempers out the 5-limit amity comma, 1600000/1594323, 5120/5103 and 6144/6125. It can also be described as the 46&amp;53 temperament, or by its wedgie, &lt;&lt;5 13 -17 9 -41 -76||. [[99edo]] is a good tuning for amity, with generator 28/99, and MOS of 11, 18, 25, 32, 46 or 53 notes are available. If you are looking for a different kind of neutral third this could be the temperament for you.</pre></div>

In the 5-limit amity is a genuine microtemperament, with 58/205 being a possible tuning. Another good choice is (64/5)^(1/13), which gives pure major thirds.
 
===Parakleismic===
In the 5-limit, parakleismic is an undoubted microtemperament, tempering out the parakleisma, |8 14 -13&gt;, with the [[118edo]] tuning giving errors well under a cent. It has a generator a very slightly (half a cent or less) flat 6/5, 13 of which give 32/3, and 14 64/5. However while 118 no longer has better than a cent of accuracy in the 7 or 11 limits, it is a decent temperament there nonetheless, and this allows an extension, with the 7-limit wedgie being &lt;&lt;13 14 35 -8 19 42|| and adding 3136/3125 and 4375/4374, and the 11-limit wedgie &lt;&lt;13 14 35 -36 ...|| adding 385/384. For the 7-limit [[99edo]] may be preferred, but in the 11-limit it is best to stick with 118. </pre></div>

Since (10/9)^4 = 4375/4374 * 32/21, the minor tone 10/9 tends to be an interval of relatively low complexity in temperaments tempering out the ragisma, though when looking at microtemperaments the word &amp;quot;relatively&amp;quot; should be emphasized. Even so mitonic uses it as a generator, which ennealimmal and enneadecal can do also, and amity reaches it in three generators. We also have 7/6 = 4375/4374 * (27/25)^2, so 27/25 also tends to relatively low cmplexity, with the same caveat about &amp;quot;relatively&amp;quot;; however 27/25 is the period for ennealimmal.&lt;br /&gt;
