'''Superpyth''', a member of the [[Archytas clan]], has 4/3 as a generator, and the Archytas comma 64/63 is [[tempering out|tempered out]], so two generators represents 7/4 in addition to 16/9. 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). An interesting coincidence is that the [[Wikipedia: Plastic number|plastic number]] has a value of ~486.822 cents, which, taken as a generator and assuming an octave period, constitutes a variety of superpyth.

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.
