5- to 10-tone scales in 43edo
43edo is a tuning system which supports meantone temperament. It is very close to a temperament called 1/5-comma meantone, which saw a little historical use in Europe. It sounds fairly close to the widely-used 12edo, but with slightly more accurate thirds, and slightly less accurate fifths, creating a subtly 'warmer' sound.
This article lists some 5- to 10-note scales in 43edo. The tuning of each scale degree is given in cents. Scales in this list with similar names share some notes in common and may sound concordant together.
