Subject: A hybrid pelog-slendro scale

Not quite a traditional pelog ... I was looking for temperaments that 
have pelog-like scales in them, and found one in a 9-note chain of a 
temperament that I wasn't familiar with ... looked it up in a list of 
temperaments and it turned out to be "gorgo". The interesting thing 
about this one is that it gorgo is a 5&16 temperament, on a line between 
5-ET and 16-ET. So you can take it in one direction and approach a 
slendro tuning, and in the other direction it approaches 16-ET which is 
a mavila temperament. In the middle it's kind of a hybrid pelog-slendro. 
Not very traditional, but it could have uses.

It's not a very typical pelog; that 64.8 cent step is way small. Compare 
this with bug[9], which sounds a little more like a pelog scale.
