| =Igliashon's 13-EDO diatonic approaches=
| |
|
| |
| From a temperament perspective, we can probably make the "best" use of 13-EDO as a 2.5.9.11.13.21 subgroup, but assuming our goal is to make reasonably-tonal, triad-based music, we might prefer to think in terms of subsets of this subgroup. The simplest and most accurately-tuned subsets are 2.5.9, 2.5.11, 2.5.13, 2.11.13, and 2.9.21, and for each of these, there is a corresponding MOS generator that is maximally-efficient at producing the desired triad. For 2.5.13, the simplest generator is 4\13, with an octave-equivalent mapping <1 -1| (for 5 and 13), corresponding to the 3rd horogram above. This gives rise to "Sephiroth" modes, in which the generator is any flatly tempered 13th harmonic. For 2.11.13, the simplest generator is 3\13, with an octave-equivalent mapping <2 3| (for 11 and 13). This corresponds to the 2nd horogram above. This scale bears a superficial resemblance to the 9-note MOS of Orwell temperament, although its approximations to the 3rd, 5th, and 7th harmonics are much more distant than in more optimal tunings of the temperament (on the other hand, its approximations to the 11th and 13th harmonics are much better than in optimal tunings of the temperament).
| |
|
| |
| 2.5.9 and 2.5.11 are both best-served by the 2\13 generator, corresponding to the 1st horogram above, having the (octave-equivalent) mappings of <2 1| (for 5 and 9) and <2 3| (for 5 and 11). This generator incidentally is also the most efficient at generating a full 2.5.9.11.13 pentad, which it achieves in the space of 5 generators via the octave-equivalent mapping <2 1 3 -2|. Being that this scale is the most well-supplied with the greatest number of target triads, we might want to consider it as a tonal basis for 13-EDO, analogous to the diatonic scale in 12-TET. We could, conveniently enough, use the 7-note MOS scale as a basis for 13-EDO notation, leading to a notation very much like 12-TET except for the insertion of an additional accidental between E and F, as in the above interval chart (in the 6L1s column). It can be thought of as a "circle of major 2nds" rather than a circle of 5ths.
| |
|
| |
| For the 2.9.21 subgroup, we can use the 5\13 generator, the closest thing 13-EDO has to a "perfect 4th", giving an octave-equivalent mapping of <3 1| and MOS scales corresponding to the 4th horogram above. The 8-note MOS scale of 5L3s, independently discovered by Easley Blackwood Jr, Paul Rapoport, and Erv Wilson (among others), is excellent for melody, being somewhat similar to the 12-TET diatonic scale but with an extra semitone added. It is also a conceivable basis for 13-EDO notation, using a modified "circle of fifths" (8\13, the octave inversion of 5\13) including an H: B#-G#-D#-A#-F#-C#-H-E-B-G-D-A-F-C-Hb-Eb-Bb-Gb-Db-Ab, which when arranged in order of ascending pitch within the octave gives the 5L3s names in the above interval chart. This notation has the advantage of preserving some familiar features: diatonic semitones still occur between B and C and E and F, and the dyads E-B, G-D, D-A, and F-C (and associated accidentals) sound approximately like "fifths". Also, the 5L3s scale on C somewhat approximates a 12-TET C major scale (if H is omitted).
| |
|
| |
| To facilitate discussion of these scales, Igliashon has ascribed them names based on H.P. Lovecraft's "Dream Cycle" mythos. The 2\13-based heptatonic has been named "archeotonic" after the "Old Ones" that rule the Dreamlands, and the 5\13-based octatonic has been named "oneirotonic" after the Dreamlands themselves. Modes of the archeotonic are named after the individual Old Ones themselves; modes of the oneirotonic are named after cities in the Dreamlands. See the charts of modes of the two scales below, excerpted from Igliashon's forthcoming paper "The Case for Thirteen":

| =Mapping to Standard Keyboards=
| |
|
| |
| The 5L+3s scale (Oneirotonic) can be mapped to the standard keyboard effectively, although somewhat awkwardly. Consider the sequence of 730-cent intervals that it derives from: 1 6 11 3 8 (13) 5 10 2 7 12 4 9 1. One of these must be absent, so it might as well be the last. So, there are at most five of the full octatonic scales on different keys. Of the four mappings that keep the major pentatonic on the white keys, which ironically look like ordinary minor-pentatonics, the latter which begins on B might be the most straightforward to learn and use.

|
| |
| The archeotonic tonality is much simpler to deal with, you just leave out a tone and remember which one. Although, for diatonic use it may be more convenient to put the missing tone between E/F or B/C
| |
| to keep it on the white keys, with the remaining small step where it looks like it should be.

| From a temperament perspective, we can probably make the &quot;best&quot; use of 13-EDO as a 2.5.9.11.13.21 subgroup, but assuming our goal is to make reasonably-tonal, triad-based music, we might prefer to think in terms of subsets of this subgroup. The simplest and most accurately-tuned subsets are 2.5.9, 2.5.11, 2.5.13, 2.11.13, and 2.9.21, and for each of these, there is a corresponding MOS generator that is maximally-efficient at producing the desired triad. For 2.5.13, the simplest generator is 4\13, with an octave-equivalent mapping &lt;1 -1| (for 5 and 13), corresponding to the 3rd horogram above. This gives rise to &quot;Sephiroth&quot; modes, in which the generator is any flatly tempered 13th harmonic. For 2.11.13, the simplest generator is 3\13, with an octave-equivalent mapping &lt;2 3| (for 11 and 13). This corresponds to the 2nd horogram above. This scale bears a superficial resemblance to the 9-note MOS of Orwell temperament, although its approximations to the 3rd, 5th, and 7th harmonics are much more distant than in more optimal tunings of the temperament (on the other hand, its approximations to the 11th and 13th harmonics are much better than in optimal tunings of the temperament).<br />
| |
| <br />
| |
| 2.5.9 and 2.5.11 are both best-served by the 2\13 generator, corresponding to the 1st horogram above, having the (octave-equivalent) mappings of &lt;2 1| (for 5 and 9) and &lt;2 3| (for 5 and 11). This generator incidentally is also the most efficient at generating a full 2.5.9.11.13 pentad, which it achieves in the space of 5 generators via the octave-equivalent mapping &lt;2 1 3 -2|. Being that this scale is the most well-supplied with the greatest number of target triads, we might want to consider it as a tonal basis for 13-EDO, analogous to the diatonic scale in 12-TET. We could, conveniently enough, use the 7-note MOS scale as a basis for 13-EDO notation, leading to a notation very much like 12-TET except for the insertion of an additional accidental between E and F, as in the above interval chart (in the 6L1s column). It can be thought of as a &quot;circle of major 2nds&quot; rather than a circle of 5ths.<br />
| |
| <br />
| |
| For the 2.9.21 subgroup, we can use the 5\13 generator, the closest thing 13-EDO has to a &quot;perfect 4th&quot;, giving an octave-equivalent mapping of &lt;3 1| and MOS scales corresponding to the 4th horogram above. The 8-note MOS scale of 5L3s, independently discovered by Easley Blackwood Jr, Paul Rapoport, and Erv Wilson (among others), is excellent for melody, being somewhat similar to the 12-TET diatonic scale but with an extra semitone added. It is also a conceivable basis for 13-EDO notation, using a modified &quot;circle of fifths&quot; (8\13, the octave inversion of 5\13) including an H: B#-G#-D#-A#-F#-C#-H-E-B-G-D-A-F-C-Hb-Eb-Bb-Gb-Db-Ab, which when arranged in order of ascending pitch within the octave gives the 5L3s names in the above interval chart. This notation has the advantage of preserving some familiar features: diatonic semitones still occur between B and C and E and F, and the dyads E-B, G-D, D-A, and F-C (and associated accidentals) sound approximately like &quot;fifths&quot;. Also, the 5L3s scale on C somewhat approximates a 12-TET C major scale (if H is omitted).<br />

| To facilitate discussion of these scales, Igliashon has ascribed them names based on H.P. Lovecraft's &quot;Dream Cycle&quot; mythos. The 2\13-based heptatonic has been named &quot;archeotonic&quot; after the &quot;Old Ones&quot; that rule the Dreamlands, and the 5\13-based octatonic has been named &quot;oneirotonic&quot; after the Dreamlands themselves. Modes of the archeotonic are named after the individual Old Ones themselves; modes of the oneirotonic are named after cities in the Dreamlands. See the charts of modes of the two scales below, excerpted from Igliashon's forthcoming paper &quot;The Case for Thirteen&quot;:<br />

| The 5L+3s scale (Oneirotonic) can be mapped to the standard keyboard effectively, although somewhat awkwardly. Consider the sequence of 730-cent intervals that it derives from: 1 6 11 3 8 (13) 5 10 2 7 12 4 9 1. One of these must be absent, so it might as well be the last. So, there are at most five of the full octatonic scales on different keys. Of the four mappings that keep the major pentatonic on the white keys, which ironically look like ordinary minor-pentatonics, the latter which begins on B might be the most straightforward to learn and use.<br />
