Augene

Augene is a regular temperament of the augmented family, which means that 128/125 is tempered out and three 5/4s make a 2/1. Augene is distinguished from its relative august by tempering out 64/63, which means that tunings in which the fifth is larger than 7\12 (700 cents) are optimal. Therefore the MOS sequence of augene goes 12, 15, 27... in constrast to august's which goes 9, 12, 21...

The first few augene MOSes are 3L 3s, 3L 6s, 3L 9s, 12L 3s... and the first EDOs that reasonably support augene are 12edo, 15edo, and especially 27edo.
