Does this representation look right? I remember I had it wrong with 53 EDO last time, and I'd like to make sure I get the Sagittal accidentals correct.

It's too hard to read without a magnifying glass (and even then not very readable), but those notes around C can't all be C natural.

The regular 72-ET Sagittal notation is like this:

0 C
1 C/|
2 C|)
3 C/|\
4 C||)
5 C||\
6 C/||\ D\!!/
7 D!!/
8 D!!)
9 D\!/
10 D!)
11 D\!
12 D
etc.

Hi Prent,

There are some significant problems with what you have there. I suggest that you look at the full-page diagram (Fig. 3) on the next-to-last page of my XH18 article about the Miracle temperament and decimal keyboard:

The notation for many of the ratios you want are shown, and there is also a full sequence of symbols (from double-flat to double-sharp) given at the bottom right.
