Slendric pentad

The slendric pentad is an essentially tempered dyadic chord with five notes to the octave. It can also be considered a pentatonic scale, i.e. Slendric[5]. In close position, reduced to an octave, it consists of a chain of four supermajor seconds, of size approximately 8/7, and a subminor third of size approximately 7/6, which closes at the octave since the gamelisma, 1029/1024, is tempered out. It is in other words a 8/7, 8/7, 8/7, 8/7, 7/6 chord, which is a 1029/1024 (slendric/gamelismic) tempered version of 1–8/7–21/16–3/2–12/7.

Equal temperaments with gamelismic pentads include 26, 31, 41, 46, 72, 77, 87, 118 and 190.
