The '''misty comma''', '''67108864/66430125''' = {{monzo| 26 -12 -3 }}, is a [[small comma]] of 17.599 cents. It is the amount by which a stack of three [[512/405|ptolemaic diminished fourths (512/405)]] exceed the [[octave]]. It can be written as ([[81/80]])/([[32805/32768]])2, ([[2048/2025]])/([[32805/32768]]), ([[128/125]])/([[531441/524288]]). Since these are commas of [[12edo]], so is the misty comma. It factors into simpler commas as ([[393216/390625]])([[1600000/1594323]]). However, the [[misty]] temperament, the 5-limit temperament tempering out the misty comma, is much more accurate than 12 equal can provide, and is also a comma of [[87edo]] and [[99edo]]. This temperament is notably in the [[schismic–Pythagorean equivalence continuum]], with ''n'' = 3.

== Etymology ==

The misty comma seems to have been named by [[Paul Erlich]] in 2002, referring to the fact that [[Carl Lumma]] "missed" this comma in a 5-limit comma search<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_5080.html#5113 Yahoo!
