Template:Infobox ET
The template Infobox ET was built to help presenting basic information about EDOs in a unified form, to make them obvious by glance. Also the formatting of the wiki text itself is easier to read and improve when it is obviously structured by this template.
The templates supports the following parameters:
| Parameter | Meaning, usage notes |
|---|---|
| Prime factorization | Prime factorization of the equal temperament (e.g. 12 = 22 × 3), even if prime per se (e.g. 17 (prime)). |
| Step size | One step (1200/edo) of the equal temperament in cents (6 significant digits). |
| Fifth | The closest approximation of 3/2, the perfect fifth (P5), in edosteps and in cents. (P5 := round(log2(3/2)*edo))
|
| Semitones | Size of the augmented unison (A1) and minor second (m2) in edosteps and cents as generated by the fifth. The A1 is the sharpness of the edo. |
| Sharp fifth | For dual-fifths edos (fifth error > 1/3 edostep), the closest sharp approximation of 3/2, in edosteps and in cents. |
| Flat fifth | For dual-fifths edos (fifth error > 1/3 edostep), the closest flat approximation of 3/2, in edosteps and in cents. |
| Major 2nd | For dual-fifths edos (fifth error > 1/3 edostep), size of the major second (M2) in edosteps and cents as generated by the sharp fifth and the flat fifth. |
m2 := 3*P8 - 5*P5) | |
A1 := M2 - m2) | |
| Consistency | The odd limit diamond to which the edo is consistent. |
Usage example for 24edo:
{{Infobox ET
| Prime factorization = 2<sup>3</sup> × 3
| Step size = 50.0000¢
| Fifth = 14\24 (700.0¢) (→ [[12edo|7\12]])
| Semitones = 2:2 (100.0¢ : 100.0¢)
| Consistency = 5
}}
Empty (Step size is self-filling) template for copy & paste (to avoid copying wrong values from edo pages:
{{Infobox ET
| Prime factorization =
| Step size = {{subst:#number_format:{{subst:#expr:1200/{{subst:#regex:{{subst:PAGENAME}}|/(\d+)-?EDO/i|\1}}}}|5}}
| Fifth =
| Semitones =
| Consistency =
}}
