Since 4/3 is a generator we can use the same standard chain-of-fourths notation that is also used for [[meantone]] and [[12edo]], with the understanding that, for example, A# is sharper than Bb (in contrast to meantone where A# is flatter than Bb, or 12edo where they are identical).

If the 5th harmonic is used at all, it is mapped to -9 generators, so C-D# is 5/4. So superpyth is "the opposite of" septimal meantone in several different ways: meantone has 4/3 tempered wide so that intervals of 5 are simple and intervals of 7 are complex, while superpyth has 4/3 tempered narrow so that intervals of 7 are simple while intervals of 5 are complex.
