User:UnbihexiumFan/Temperaments
A collection of temperaments that I have found that may or may not have yet been discovered. A lot of these are the same as already-known temperaments but with non-octave periods. I am not very good with technical details so even though they are included as info on most temperaments I will not be putting it here.
Stearnsmic 7/4-period temperaments
While searching for temperaments with period 7/4 and generator 3/2 I found that -8 generators (117649/104976) provides a close approximation of 9/8. The difference between these intervals is 118098/117649, which has apparently already been named the stearnsma. Tempering this comma given mapping generators ~7/4 and ~3/2 gives a pretty nice temperament which is essentially the same as no-five stearnsmic with different generators, which gives easier access to the perfect fifth and to septimal thirds.
Interval chain for the 7/4.2.3 temperament tempering the stearnsma:
| # Gens | Cents[1] | Approximate ratios | # Gens | Cents[1] | Approximate ratios |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| +0 | 0.00 | 1/1 | -0 | 968.83 | 7/4 |
| +1 | 701.32 | 3/2 | -1 | 267.51 | 7/6 |
| +2 | 433.80 | 9/7 | -2 | 535.02 | 49/36 |
(not completed yet... will finish soon)
has a good 7/4.2.3.13.17 extension that tempers 442/441, 729/728, 289/288
