Augmented–cloudy equivalence continuum
The augmented-cloudy equivalence continuum is a continuum of 5-limit temperaments which equate a number of dieses (128/125) with the cloudy comma (16807/16384).
All temperaments in the continuum satisfy (128/125)n ~ 16807/16384. Varying n results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to augmented as n approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite n, the continuum describes the set of all 2.5.7 subgroup temperaments supported by 15edo (due to it being the unique equal temperament that tempers both commas and thus tempers all combinations of them). The just value of n is approximately 1.0747..., and temperaments having n near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.
