'''Gaster''' is a [[regular temperament]] that tempers out a plethora of [[unnoticeable comma]]s including {{monzo|-70 72 -19}} ([[#Gaster comma|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]].

The generator for this temperament is a gassormic tritone, [[55/39]], and from this it derives its name. Coincidentally, one of its commas involves stacking seventeen 9/8s, and 17 is a number associated with the character Gaster from Undertale. 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]].

== Gaster comma ==
'''Gaster comma''' is a 5-limit [[unnoticeable comma]] measuring about 0.7995 cents. It is the difference between a stack of seventeen [[9/8]]s and a stack of nineteen [[10/9]]s, (9/8)<sup>17</sup>/(10/9)<sup>19</sup> = {{monzo|-70 72 -19}} (quadbila-negu). Equal temperaments which temper out this comma include {{Vals| 111, 113, 224, 335, 559, 783, 1342, 1901, 3243 }} and others.
