The most complex 11-odd-limit dekany. This creates a scale of 1 21/20 11/10 7/6 77/60 7/5 3/2 33/20 9/5 11/6 2/1, with steps of 21/20 22/21 35/33 11/10 12/11 15/14 11/10 12/11 55/54 12/11. Although it has a perfect fifth above the root, this is otherwise surprisingly xenharmonic sounding for a low factored dekany, with no full 5-limit chords and most steps falling between the cracks of the 12edo keyboard, which forces you to experiment with unfamiliar harmonies if you want to avoid keeping any music created static.
