Template:Infobox ET
The template Infobox ET was built to help presenting basic information about equal temperamentss in a unified form, to make them obvious by glance. Also the formatting of the wiki text itself is easier to read and improve when it is obviously structured by this template.
The templates supports the following parameters (highly requested parameters in bold):
Parameter | Meaning | Usage hints, Remarks |
---|---|---|
Prime factorization | Prime factorization of the equal temperament (e.g. 12 = 22 * 3) | |
Subgroup | The JI subgroup that the equal temperament is a temperament of | |
Step size | One step of the equal temperament in cents | |
Fifth type | Type of fifth, for edos. (Possibly mavila, flattone, meantone, parapyth, superpyth, father). If the edo has more than one type, list all the types. | |
Common uses | Common compositional uses of the equal temperament | |
Example composition | MP3 file name of the 1-minute example composition |
Usage example for 24edo:
{{Infobox ET | Prime factorization = 2<sup>3</sup> * 3 | Subgroup = 2.3.11.13.17.19 | Step size = 50¢ | Fifth type = Meantone 7\12 700¢ (-1.955¢) | Common uses = Hyperchromatic 12edo, Westernized maqam, semaphore | Important MOSes = Dominant meantone 5*2-2*1 (7\12, 1\1), semaphore 5*4-4*1 (5\24, 1\1), mohajira (7\24, 1\1), diminished (1\6, 1\4), augmented (1\4, 1\3) | Example composition = null.mp3 }}
