Ups and Downs is a generic [[notation]] system that works with edos with ~~an accurate~~ fifth. It only adds 2 symbols to standard notation, so it's very easy to learn. The name comes from the up symbol "^" and the down symbol "v". When extended with highs and lows, it works with almost all rank 2 tunings (see the [[pergen|pergens]] page).

To understand the ups and downs notation, let's start with an EDO that doesn't need it. 19-EDO is easy to notate because 7 fifths reduced by 4 octaves adds up to one EDO-step. So C# is right next to C, and the keyboard runs C C# Db D D# Eb E etc. Conventional notation works perfectly with 19-EDO as long as you remember that C# and Db are different notes.
