The Tremend edits are really tickling me rn so this page is for my own derivative work

Univell

Univell is a family of 3-web circumtrusive scales which divide the haptic ninth into 5 equally sized cells. As such, Univell scales map the armatic tetrachord to an odd number of exponents per octave. Each Univell scale has a corresponding anthill scale derived from the adination of its torus basis in P-symmetrical just intonation. Although there are a theoretically infinite number of Univell scales, the only authentically correlative Univell scales are those with 5, 10, 22, 27, 32, 54 or 59 notes per octave.

Univell[5]

The modes of Univell[5] are, from most anional to most cational:

Name Ambisplit notation
Trout Q @R !5
Salmon ^6 ^Y
Minnow N ~A
Carp R @5 !Q
Sturgeon ^7 ^Y vP

The depopulate case can be termed Shark, although it is of limited compositional utility due to its flat 3rd harmonic and sharp teeth.

Univell[10]

Univell[10] is the smallest Univell scale to allow access to perimodal and sesquimodal intervals on the same root, which makes it a plausible tuning for traditional Nebraska vocal polyphony (particularly the Bellevue idiom, in which the tectonic 4th is often intonated sharp for expressive purposes). The 310afdo tuning of Univell[10] has been noted for its ethereal quality, which may derive from the fact that 310afdo equates Hutchmanch's diesis with three sibilismas. The modes of Univell[10] are, from most anional to most cational:

Name Ambisplit notation Perimodal intervals Sesquimodal intervals
jeeshil !6 !H @5 !V !O
gilil vI &R V 5
shibid ^G $7 v5 !G
thoodil ^I @5 Y !2 ^F @L
klithij vI &R $3 ^C
jeedib ^I !J B @V ^F
thigid @2 vL vF @3
leegij !7 ~1 ~5 U ^G
cheethil 1 !G 1 !H @5 P
klijith U ^6 ^I vX 3 1

Univell[10] also has six depopulate cases:

Name Ambisplit notation Perimodal intervals Sesquimodal intervals
Supertrout Q @R !5 !L ~1
Supersalmon ^6 ^Y !L ~1
Superminnow N ~A !L ~1
Supercarp R @5 !Q !L ~1
Supersturgeon ^7 ^Y vP !L ~1
Supershark $0 !L ~1
