Original Wikitext content:

LucyTuning is the meantone tuning advocated by [[Charles Lucy]], with a fifth of precisely 600 + 300/pi = 695.493 cents. This is close to the [[88edo]] fifth of 695.455 cents, and shares its general characteristics such as being a good tuning for [[Meantone family|mothra]] and [[Didymus rank three family|eupterpe]] temperaments. As a tuning for [[5-limit]] meantone, it has the softer quality characteristic of the flatter fifth meantones between [[50edo]] and [[19edo]]. It has a major third of 1200/Pi cents, or 1/Pi of an octave, 381.972 cents, 4.342 cents flat of 5/4.
