'''Gaster''' is a [[regular temperament]] that tempers out a plethora of [[unnoticeable comma]]s including {{monzo|-70 72 -19}} ([[gaster comma]], quadbila-negu). The generator for this temperament is a gassormic tritone, [[55/39]], and from this it derives its name. Aside from the psychoacoustic advantage of tempering out such small commas, a secondary concept of this temperament is that complex intervals in lower prime limits are identified with simple intervals in higher prime limits (for example, 55/39 = 38/27 = 31/22 = 24/17, 26/19 = 41/30 = 56/41, etc.) Since it tempers out the mirkwai comma, it qualifies as a [[Mirkwai clan|mirkwai temperament]].
