[[toc|flat]] ---- The 5-limit parent comma for the porcupine family is 250/243, the maximal [[diesis]] or porcupine comma. Its [[monzo]] is |1 -5 3>, and flipping that yields <<3 5 1|| for the [[wedgie]]. This tells us the [[generator]] is a minor whole tone, the [[10_9|10/9]] interval, and that three of these add up to a fourth, with two more giving the minor sixth. In fact, (10/9)^3 = 4/3 * 250/243, and (10/9)^5 = 8/5 * (250/243)^2. 3/22 is a very recommendable generator, and MOS of 7, 8 and 15 notes make for some nice scale possibilities. [[POTE tuning|POTE generator]]: 163.950 Map: [<1 2 3|, <0 -3 -5|] EDOs: [[15edo|15]], [[22edo|22]], [[161edo|161]], [[183edo|183]] ==Seven limit children== The second comma of the [[Normal lists|normal comma list]] defines which [[7-limit]] family member we are looking at. That means [[64_63|64/63]], the [[Archyta's comma]], for [[Porcupine family#Porcupine|porcupine]], [[36_35|36/35]], the [[septimal quarter tone]], for [[Porcupine family#Hystrix|hystrix]], [[50_49|50/49]], the [[jubilisma]], for [[Porcupine family#Hedgehog|hedgehog]], and [[49_48|49/48]], the [[slendro diesis]], for [[Porcupine family#Nautilus|nautilus]]. =Porcupine= Porcupine, with wedgie <<3 5 -6 1 -18 -28||, uses six of its minor tone generator steps to get to [[7_4|7/4]]. For this to work you need a small minor tone such as [[22edo]] provides, and once again 3\22 is a good tuning choice, though we might pick in preference 8\59, 11\81, or 19\140 for our generator.

Unfortunately in temperaments as in life you get what you pay for, and hystrix, for which a generator of 2\15 or 9\68 can be used, is a temperament for the adventurous souls who have probably already tried [[15edo]]. They can try the even sharper fifth of hystrix in [[68edo]] and see how that suits.
