Here's a twelve note scale derived from Ozan's MOS. From a
well-tempering point of view, I think it would be better to rearrange
the circle of fifths.

Gene, that's fascinating, but my preference requires that the two fifths be equally away from the pure:
12-note meantone out of 79 MOS from 159tET
|
0: 1/1 C unison, perfect prime
1: 90.575 cents
2: 196.245 cents D
3: 301.916 cents D# Eb
4: 392.491 cents
5: 498.162 cents F
6: 588.736 cents
7: 694.407 cents G
8: 784.982 cents G#\ Ab\
9: 890.653 cents
10: 996.323 cents A# Bb
11: 1086.898 cents
12: 2/1 C octave
Cordially,
Ozan YARMAN

It's not really meantone, since it is not regular in its generation by
fifths. It's an irregular temperament.

But it has meantone flavor to a great extent?

Oh, certainly. The usual proceedure would be to collect the flat
fifths together more, so as to give a more meantone kegion region, but
this has a meantone flavor also--anything where four fifths make an
approximate five does.

I thought that might be a bit unclear to a newbie ...
so (hopefully) to clarify:
"anything where four fifths makes an approximate five"
= anything where four steps along the 3-axis approximates
one step along the 5-axis, on the 5-limit just intonation
lattice.

A Gene Smithism; sometimes my editing produces strange results, and
this is a winner.
Key region: the usual method would be to park some flat fifths
together, and get some better thirds in a certain range. This scale
does that, but more often the arrangement would involve concentrating
the flat fifths more.
