[[Sensi]] has multiple competing [[extension]]s to the [[11-limit]]. The simplest [[7-limit]] [[comma]]s of sensi are [[126/125|starling (126/125)]] and [[245/243|sensamagic (245/243)]], and it can be viewed as the merge of the two corresponding [[rank-3 temperament]]s. These rank-3 temperaments are associated with distinct paths to the 11-limit. On one hand, [[starling]] strongly suggests tempering out [[176/175]], leading to thrush ({126/125, 176/175}). Note: 126/125 = (176/175)(441/440). On the other, [[sensamagic]] strongly suggests tempering out [[385/384]], leading to undecimal sensamagic ({245/243, 385/384}). Note: 245/243 = (385/384)(896/891). Taking either path for sensi leads us to the following entries:  
{{Breadcrumb|Sensi}}
* '''Sensor''' (19 & 27) – tempering out 126/125, 245/243, 385/384
 
* '''Sensus''' (19e & 27e) – tempering out 126/125, 176/175, 245/243
[[Sensi]] has multiple competing [[extension]]s to the [[11-limit]]. The simplest [[7-limit]] [[comma]]s of sensi are [[126/125|starling (126/125)]] and [[245/243|sensamagic (245/243)]], and it can be viewed as the merge of the two corresponding [[rank-3 temperament]]s. These rank-3 temperaments are associated with distinct paths to the 11-limit. On one hand, [[starling]] strongly suggests tempering out [[176/175]], leading to thrush ({{nowrap|{126/125, 176/175}}}), since {{nowrap|126/125 {{=}} (176/175)(441/440)}}. On the other, [[sensamagic]] strongly suggests tempering out [[385/384]], leading to undecimal sensamagic ({{nowrap|{245/243, 385/384}}}), since {{nowrap|245/243 {{=}} (385/384)(896/891)}}. Taking either path for sensi leads us to one of the following entries:  
* '''Sensor''' ({{nowrap| 19 & 27 }}) – tempering out 126/125, 245/243, and 385/384
* '''Sensus''' ({{nowrap| 19e & 27e }}) – tempering out 126/125, 176/175, and 245/243


The two unite in [[46edo|46et]], where both 176/175 and 385/384, as well as their sum, [[121/120]], are tempered out. They can be extended to the 13- and 17-limit naturally by adding [[91/90]] and [[154/153]] to the comma list in this order. Then the generator represents [[9/7]], [[13/10]], and [[22/17]].

In addition, there are some low-complexity low-accuracy entries:  
* '''Sensis''' (19 & 27e) – tempering out 56/55, 100/99, 245/243
* '''Sensis''' ({{nowrap| 19 & 27e }}) – tempering out 56/55, 100/99, and 245/243
* '''Sensa''' (19e & 27) – tempering out 55/54, 77/75, 99/98
* '''Sensa''' ({{nowrap| 19e & 27 }}) – tempering out 55/54, 77/75, and 99/98


Another possible path which relates a sense of compromise is to temper out [[121/120]], leading to bisensi. This temperament is supported by [[38edo|38df]], 46, and [[54edo|54c]].  
Another possible path which relates a sense of compromise is to temper out [[121/120]], leading to bisensi. This has the effect of slicing the octave in two, and is supported by [[38edo|38df]], 46, and [[54edo|54c]].

Latest revision as of 12:04, 6 August 2025

Sensi has multiple competing extensions to the 11-limit. The simplest 7-limit commas of sensi are starling (126/125) and sensamagic (245/243), and it can be viewed as the merge of the two corresponding rank-3 temperaments. These rank-3 temperaments are associated with distinct paths to the 11-limit. On one hand, starling strongly suggests tempering out 176/175, leading to thrush ({126/125, 176/175}), since 126/125 = (176/175)(441/440). On the other, sensamagic strongly suggests tempering out 385/384, leading to undecimal sensamagic ({245/243, 385/384}), since 245/243 = (385/384)(896/891). Taking either path for sensi leads us to one of the following entries:

  • Sensor (19 & 27) – tempering out 126/125, 245/243, and 385/384
  • Sensus (19e & 27e) – tempering out 126/125, 176/175, and 245/243

The two unite in 46et, where both 176/175 and 385/384, as well as their sum, 121/120, are tempered out. They can be extended to the 13- and 17-limit naturally by adding 91/90 and 154/153 to the comma list in this order. Then the generator represents 9/7, 13/10, and 22/17.

In addition, there are some low-complexity low-accuracy entries:

  • Sensis (19 & 27e) – tempering out 56/55, 100/99, and 245/243
  • Sensa (19e & 27) – tempering out 55/54, 77/75, and 99/98

Another possible path which relates a sense of compromise is to temper out 121/120, leading to bisensi. This has the effect of slicing the octave in two, and is supported by 38df, 46, and 54c.

See Sensipent family #Sensor, #Sensus, #Sensis, and #Sensa for technical data.
