A 15-odd-limit stellated Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 273/256 91/80 39/32 13/10 21/16 7/5 91/64 3/2 195/128 13/8 105/64 7/4 15/8 2/1, with steps of 273/256 16/15 15/14 16/15 105/104 16/15 65/64 96/91 65/64 16/15 105/104 16/15 15/14 16/15. This expands the base hexany out in a moderately effective way that is a detemper of negri, a near equal decatonic scale where 4 of the degrees have two notes a comma step apart. It has 4 perfect fifths, plus another 4 that are imperfect but still in the diatonic range, but they are all on one half of the scale, which limits your modulation options somewhat, but there are still more than enough good combinations of notes to compose with.
