Original Wikitext content:
The **slendric pentad** is an [[Dyadic chord#Essentially tempered dyadic chords|essentially tempered dyadic chord]] with five notes to the octave which can also be considered a pentatonic scale. In close position, reduced to an octave, it consists of a chain of four supermajor seconds, of size approximately [[8_7|8/7]], and a subminor third of size approximatly [[7_6|7/6]], which closes at the octave since the [[gamelisma]], 1029/1024, is [[tempering out|tempered out]]. It is in other words a 8/7-8/7-8/7-8/7-7/6 chord, which is a 1029/1024 ([[Gamelismic family#Gamelan|gamelan tempered]]) version of 1-8/7-[[21_16|21/16]]-[[3_2|3/2]]-[[12_7|12/7]]. Equal ([[edo]]) temperaments with gamelismic pentads include [[26edo|26]], [[31edo|31]], [[41edo|41]], [[46edo|46]], [[72edo|72]], [[77edo|77]], [[87edo|87]], [[118edo|118]] and [[190edo|190]].
