	'''Porcupine''', [15 & 22] (usually defined in 2.3.5.11 or 2.3.5.7.11), is a temperament that splits 4/3 into three submajor seconds (approximately 11/10), representing 10/9~11/10~12/11. In the 5-limit, it equates 81/80 with 25/24. This makes it an excellent compromise between accuracy and simplicity on the side of simplicity while at the same time not fully exotempering (the intervals it detunes significantly, such as 10/9, can be seen as "connective" intervals rather than distinct harmonic identities, with the notable exception of 11/9).

	The simplest Porcupine edo join is [7 & 8], however this results in an inaccurate extension to higher primes than 11. Also note that 29 agrees with 15 & 22 in 2.3.5.11 but not in 2.3.5.7.11, thus [22 & 29] represents a separate extension from [15 & 22] in the full 11-limit.		The simplest Porcupine edo join is [7 & 8], and surprisingly this correctly defines 11-limit porcupine (implying 8edo technically supports [[archy]]) - however this results in an inaccurate extension to higher primes than 11.

5/4 as doubly limma-flat major third (5 & 37): more on tunings

	==== 5/4 as doubly limma-flat major third (5 & 37) ====		==== 5/4 as doubly limma-flat major third (5 & 37) ====
	This is an alternative extension, best tuned sharp ~~of 27edo~~. Instead of flattening the major third by a diatonic semitone to reach the 5th harmonic, you flatten by two diatonic semitones. In diatonic notation, this means that 5/4 is the double-augmented unison.		This is an alternative extension, best tuned at least as sharp as [[32edo]]. Instead of flattening the major third by a diatonic semitone to reach the 5th harmonic, you flatten by two diatonic semitones. In diatonic notation, this means that 5/4 is the double-augmented unison.

	This range is often interpreted as Oceanfront or Ultrapyth, equating the diatonic major third (already interpreted as 9/7) to 13/10.

This is equivalent to taking the spacer 64/63, which may be equated with 81/80 (as in [[46edo]] and [[87edo]]) or ~~tuned to be even~~ smaller than 81/80 (as in [[63edo]] and [[80edo]]) assuming prime 5 is added.		Parapyth has two non-period generators: the fifth (which is tuned in the [[gentle region]], i.e. somewhat sharp of just but flatter than 17edo) and the "spacer" 28/27, which is equated to 33/32. This is equivalent to taking the spacer 64/63, which may be equated with 81/80 (as in [[46edo]] and [[87edo]]) or tempered smaller than 81/80 (mapping [[5120/5103]] negatively, as in [[63edo]] and [[80edo]]) assuming prime 5 is added.

	[[Rodan]] (Parapyth + [[Slendric]]) is arguably the most important rank-2 temperament that supports Parapyth (besides the gentle-fifth-generated 2.3.7.11.13 temperament Leapfrog, which see [[Gentle tuning]]).		[[Rodan]] (Parapyth + [[Slendric]]) is arguably the most important rank-2 temperament that supports Parapyth (besides the gentle-fifth-generated 2.3.7.11.13 temperament Leapfrog, which see [[Gentle tuning]]). (As an aside, having Rodan also enables [[penslen]] in a Parapyth tuning.)

	If prime 5 is added to 2.3.7.11.13 Parapyth via [[Aberschismic]] tempering equating 64/63 to 81/80, the resulting 2.3.5.7.11.13 temperament is called Pele (41 & 46 & 58).		If prime 5 is added to 2.3.7.11.13 Parapyth via [[Aberschismic]] tempering equating 64/63 to 81/80, the resulting 2.3.5.7.11.13 temperament is called Pele (41 & 46 & 58). However, note that there is no canonical 5 extension applying broadly to Parapyth, as 17edo lacks a good prime 5.

	If the diatonic augmented fourth is equated to 23/16, the resulting 2.3.7.11.13.23 temperament is called Skidoo (17 & 24 & 46). [[63edo]] is a particularly good Skidoo tuning.		If the diatonic augmented fourth is equated to 23/16, the resulting 2.3.7.11.13.23 temperament is called Skidoo (17 & 24 & 46). [[63edo]] is a particularly good Skidoo tuning.

	==== Characteristic scale ====		==== Characteristic scale ====
	The characteristic scale is the "default" set of notes that serve as the basis for a system being notated. The notes of the characteristic scale are represented in text by ''nominals'' (written symbols representing notes, usually alphabetic, numerical, or drawn from some other extramusical sequence) and on the staff by distinct staff positions. For standard notation, the characteristic scale is [[mosdiatonic]] in the mode LsLLsLL on A = 440Hz. The nominals are ABCDEFG, and then A an octave up.

			Note that the actual order of the alphabet may be of secondary importance to some musicians. While retaining it aids intuition for people getting into music theory through xenharmony (and thus should be the general rule for notation schemes on this wiki that are not already established or thoroughly practiced), some experienced musicians may prefer to treat the letters as arbitrary symbols (able to be shuffled out of order, reassigned based on pitch or chain position, or otherwise altered, to support their own intuition structures) in nonstandard notation schemes.
