Tour of regular temperaments: Difference between revisions

=== Families defined by a 2.3 comma ===

These are families defined by a 3-limit (color name: wa) comma. If only primes 2 and 3 are part of the [[subgroup]], the comma creates a rank-1 temperament, an [[edo]]. But if another prime such as 5 is present, the comma creates a rank-2 temperament. Since edos are discussed elsewhere, this section assumes the presence of at least one additional prime. The rank-2 temperament created consists of multiple "copies" of an edo. The edo copies can be thought of as being offset from one another by a small comma. This small comma is represented in the [[pergen]] by ^1.  

; Blackwood family (P8/5, ^1)

: This family tempers out the [[limma]], {{monzo| 8 -5 }} (256/243). It equates 5 fifths with 3 octaves, which creates multiple copies of [[5edo]]. The fifth is ~720¢, quite sharp. The only member of this family is the [[blackwood]] temperament, which is 5-limit. Blackwood's edo copies are offset from one another by 5/4, or alternatively by 81/80. 5/4 is usually tempered sharp, perhaps ~400¢, to match the sharp fifth. Its color name is Sawati.  

; [[Whitewood family]] (P8/7, ^1)

: This family tempers out the apotome, {{monzo| -11 7 }} (2187/2048). It equates 7 fifths with 4 octaves, which creates multiple copies of [[7edo]]. The fifth is ~685¢, which is very flat. This family includes the [[whitewood]] temperament. Its color name is Lawati.  

; [[Compton family]] (P8/12, ^1)

: This tempers out the [[Pythagorean comma]], {{monzo| -19 12 }} (531441/524288). It equates 12 fifths with 7 octaves, which creates multiple copies of [[12edo]]. Temperaments in this family include [[compton]] and [[catler]]. In the 5-limit compton temperament, the edo copies are offset from one another by a justly tuned 5/4, or alternatively by a tempered 81/80. Several 12edo instruments slightly detuned from each other provide an easy way to make music with these temperaments. Its color name is Lalawati.  

; [[Countercomp family]] (P8/41, ^1)

: This family tempers out the [[41-comma|Pythagorean countercomma]], {{monzo| 65 -41 }}, which creates multiple copies of [[41edo]]. Its color name is Wa-41.  

; [[Mercator family]] (P8/53, ^1)

: This family tempers out the [[Mercator's comma]], {{monzo| -84 53 }}, which creates multiple copies of [[53edo]]. Its color name is Wa-53.  

=== Families defined by a 2.3.5 comma ===

These are families defined by a 5-limit (color name: ya) comma. As we go up in rank 2, the various 5-limit temperaments often break up as families of related temperaments, depending on how higher primes are mapped (or equivalently, on which higher limit commas are introduced.) The same comment applies to 7-limit temperaments and rank 3, etc. Members of families and their relationships can be classified by the [[normal lists|normal comma list]] of the various temperaments. Families include weak extensions as well as strong, in other words, the [[pergen]] shown here may change.

; [[Meantone family]] (P8, P5)  

: The meantone family tempers out [[81/80]], also called the syntonic comma. This comma manifests as the difference between a stack of four 3/2's (81/16, or (3/2)⁴) and 5/1 harmonic (5/1, or 80/16). It is so named because it splits the major third into two equal sized tones, signifying that 9/8 and 10/9 are equated, with each tone being sized as a mean of the two tones. It has a flattened fifth or sharpened fourth as generator. Some meantone tunings are [[12edo|12-]], [[19edo|19-]], [[31edo|31-]], [[43edo|43-]], [[50edo|50-]], [[55edo|55-]] and [[81edo]]. Aside from tuning meantone as a subset of some equal division of the octave, some common rank-2 tunings include having a generator of 3/2 flattened by 1/3, 2/7, 1/4, 1/5 or 1/6 of the syntonic comma. Its color name is Guti.  

; [[Schismatic family]] (P8, P5)

: The schismatic family tempers out the schisma of {{monzo| -15 8 1 }} ([[32805/32768]]), which is the amount by which the Pythagorean comma exceeds the syntonic comma. The 5-limit version of the temperament is a [[microtemperament]] which flattens the fifth by a fraction of a schisma, but other members of the family are less accurate. As a 5-limit system, it is far more accurate than meantone but still with manageable complexity; whereas meantone equates four 3/2's with 5/1, schismatic equates eight 4/3's with 10/1, so that the Pythagorean diminished fourth of 8192/6561 is equated with 5/4. Tunings include [[12edo|12-]], [[29edo|29-]], [[41edo|41-]], [[53edo|53-]], and [[118edo]]. Its color name is Layoti.  

; [[Mavila family]] (P8, P5)

: This tempers out the mavila comma, {{monzo| -7 3 1 }} ([[135/128]]), also known as the major chroma or major limma. These temperaments are notable for having 3/2's tuned so flat that four of them stacked together and octave reduced leads you to 6/5 instead of 5/4, and one consequence of this is that it generates [[2L 5s]] (antidiatonic) scales. 5/4 is equated to 3 fourths minus 1 octave. Septimal mavila and armodue are some of the most notable temperaments associated with the mavila comma. Tunings include [[9edo|9-]], [[16edo|16-]], [[23edo|23-]], and [[25edo]]. Its color name is Layobiti.  

; [[Father family]] (P8, P5)

: This tempers out [[16/15]], the just diatonic semitone, and equates 5/4 with 4/3. Its color name is Gubiti.  

; [[Diaschismic family]] (P8/2, P5)

: The diaschismic family tempers out the [[diaschisma]], {{monzo| 11 -4 -2 }} (2048/2025), such that two classic major thirds and a [[81/64|Pythagorean major third]] stack to an octave (i.e. {{nowrap| (5/4)⋅(5/4)⋅(81/64) → 2/1 }}). It has a half-octave period of an approximate 45/32 or 64/45, and its generator is an approximate 3/2. 5/4 is equated to 3 periods minus 2 fifths. The major second ~9/8 is divided in half, with each half equated to ~16/15. Diaschismic tunings include [[12edo|12-]], [[22edo|22-]], [[34edo|34-]], [[46edo|46-]], [[56edo|56-]], [[58edo|58-]] and [[80edo]]. Its color name is Saguguti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the period is 7/5, which makes [[pajara]] temperament, where the intervals 50/49 and 64/63 are tempered out. [[22edo]] is an excellent pajara tuning.

; [[Bug family]] (P8, P4/2)

: This low-accuracy family of temperaments tempers out [[27/25]], the large limma or bug comma. The generator is an approximate 6/5 or {{nowrap| 10/9 {{=}} ~250{{c}} }}, two of which make ~4/3. 5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 3 generators. Its color name is Guguti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is 7/6~8/7, which leads to semaphore or Zozoti.

; [[Immunity family]] (P8, P4/2)

: This tempers out the immunity comma, {{monzo| 16 -13 2 }} (1638400/1594323). Its generator is {{nowrap| ~729/640 {{=}} ~247{{c}} }}, two of which make ~4/3. 5/4 is equated to 3 octaves minus 13 generators. Its color name is Sasa-yoyoti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is 7/6~8/7, which leads to semaphore or Zozoti.

; [[Dicot family]] (P8, P5/2)

: The dicot family is a low-accuracy family of temperaments which temper out the chromatic semitone, [[25/24]] (the difference between 5/4 and 6/5, or alternatively the difference between two 5/4's and 3/2 or between two 6/5's and 3/2). This temperament hence equates major and minor thirds, evening them out into a neutral-sized third of ~350¢ that is taken to approximate both. [[7edo]] makes for a "good" dicot tuning, although it is questionable whether this temperament bears any actual resemblance to 5-limit harmony. Two of the neutral dicot thirds span a 3/2. Tunings include 7edo, [[10edo]], and [[17edo]]. Its color name is Yoyoti. An obvious 2.3.11 interpretation of the generator is ~11/9, which leads to neutral or Luluti.

; [[Augmented family]] (P8/3, P5)

: The augmented family tempers out the diesis of {{monzo| 7 0 -3 }} ([[128/125]]), the difference between three 5/4 major thirds and a 2/1 octave, and so identifies the major third with the third-octave. Hence it has the same 400-cent 5/4-approximations as [[12edo]], which is an excellent tuning for augmented. It is the temperament that results in what is commonly called the "augmented scale" ([[3L 3s]]) in common 12edo-based music theory, as well as what is commonly called "[http://www.tcherepnin.com/alex/basic_elem1.htm#9step Tcherepnin's scale]" ([[3L 6s]]). Its color name is Triguti.  

; [[Misty family]] (P8/3, P5)

: The misty family tempers out the [[misty comma]] of {{monzo| 26 -12 -3 }}, the difference between the [[Pythagorean comma]] and a stack of three [[schisma]]s. The period is ~512/405 and the generator is ~3/2 (or alternatively ~135/128). 5/4 is equated to 8 periods minus 4 fifths, thus 5/4 is split into 4 equal parts, each 2 periods minus a fifth. Its color name is Sasa-triguti.  

; [[Porcupine family]] (P8, P4/3)

: The porcupine family tempers out {{monzo| 1 -5 3 }} ([[250/243]]), the difference between three 10/9's (1000/729) and 4/3, known as the maximal diesis or porcupine comma. It subdivides the fourth into three equal parts, each taken as an approximated 10/9, of which two approximate 6/5. It also manifests itself as the difference between three 6/5's and 16/9, as the difference between 10/9 and 27/25, and as the difference between 81/80 and 25/24. 5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 5 generators. Some porcupine temperaments include [[15edo|15-]], [[22edo|22-]], [[37edo|37-]], and [[59edo]]. Its color name is Triyoti. An important 7-limit extension also tempers out 64/63.

; [[Alphatricot family]] (P8, P11/3)

: The alphatricot family tempers out the [[alphatricot comma]], {{monzo| 39 -29 3 }}. The generator is {{nowrap| ~59049/40960 ({{monzo| -13 10 -1 }}) {{=}} 633{{c}} }}, or its octave inverse {{nowrap| ~81920/59049 {{=}} 567{{c}} }}. Three of the former generators equals the third harmonic, ~3/1. 5/4 is equated to 29 of these generators octave-reduced. Its color name is Quadsa-triyoti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is {{nowrap| 81/56 {{=}} 639{{c}} }}, a much simpler ratio which leads to the [[Tour of Regular Temperaments #Latriruti clan (P8, P11/3)|Latriruti clan]]. An obvious 13-limit interpretation is {{nowrap| 13/9 {{=}} 637¢ }}, an even simpler ratio implying the [[Tour of Regular Temperaments #Satrithoti clan (P8, P11/3)|Satrithoti clan]].

; [[Diminished family]] (P8/4, P5)

: The diminished family tempers out the major diesis or diminished comma, {{monzo| 3 4 -4 }} or [[648/625]], the amount by which four 6/5 minor thirds exceed an octave, and so identifies the minor third with the quarter-octave. Hence it has the same 300-cent 6/5-approximations as [[12edo]]. 5/4 is equated to 1 fifth minus 1 period. Its color name is Quadguti.  

; [[Undim family]] (P8/4, P5)

: The undim family tempers out the [[undim comma]] of {{monzo| 41 -20 -4 }}, the difference between the Pythagorean comma and a stack of four schismas. Its color name is Trisa-quadguti.  

; Negri family (P8, P4/4)  

: This tempers out the [[negri comma]], {{monzo| -14 3 4 }}. Its only member so far is [[negri]]. Its generator is ~16/15, four of which make ~4/3. 5/4 is equated to 3 generators. Its color name is Laquadyoti.  

; [[Tetracot family]] (P8, P5/4)

: The tetracot family is a much higher accuracy affair than the dicot family. Instead of taking two neutral thirds to reach 3/2, it takes four minor (10/9) whole tones. Four of these exceed 3/2 by {{monzo| 5 -9 4 }} (20000/19683), the minimal diesis or [[tetracot comma]]. 5/4 is equated to 9 generators minus an octave. [[7edo]] can also be considered a tetracot tuning, as can [[20edo]], [[27edo]], [[34edo]], and [[41edo]]. Its color name is Saquadyoti.  

; [[Smate family]] (P8, P11/4)

: This tempers out the [[symbolic comma]], {{monzo| 11 -1 -4 }} (2048/1875). Its generator is {{nowrap| ~5/4 {{=}} ~421{{c}} }}, four of which make ~8/3. Its color name is Saquadguti.  

; [[Vulture family]] (P8, P12/4)

: This tempers out the [[vulture comma]], {{monzo| 24 -21 4 }}. Its generator is {{nowrap| ~320/243 {{=}} ~475{{c}} }}, four of which make ~3/1. 5/4 is equated to 21 generators minus 8 octaves. Its color name is Sasa-quadyoti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is 21/16, which makes buzzard or Saquadruti.

; [[Quintile family]] (P8/5, P5)

: This tempers out the [[quintile comma]], 847288609443/838860800000 ({{monzo| -28 25 -5 }}). The period is ~59049/51200, and 5 periods make an octave. The generator is a fifth, or equivalently, 3/5 of an octave minus a fifth. This alternate generator is only about 18{{c}}, thus the scales have a very lopsided L/s ratio. 5/4 is equated to 2/5 of an octave minus 5 of these 18{{c}} generators. Its color name is Trila-quinguti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is 8/7, which leads to Laquinzoti.

; [[Ripple family]] (P8, P4/5)

: This tempers out the [[ripple comma]], 6561/6250 ({{monzo| -1 8 -5 }}), which equates a stack of four [[10/9]]'s with [[8/5]], and five of them with [[16/9]]. The generator is [[27/25]], two of which equals 10/9, three of which equals [[6/5]], and five of which equals [[4/3]]. 5/4 is equated to an octave minus 8 generators. As one might expect, [[12edo]] is about as accurate as it can be. Its color name is Quinguti.  

; [[Passion family]] (P8, P4/5)

: This tempers out the [[passion comma]], 262144/253125 ({{monzo| 18 -4 -5 }}), which equates a stack of four [[16/15]]'s with [[5/4]], and five of them with [[4/3]]. Its color name is Saquinguti.  

; [[Quintaleap family]] (P8, P4/5)

: This tempers out the [[quintaleap comma]], {{monzo| 37 -16 -5 }}. The generator is ~135/128, five of them gives ~4/3, and sixteen of them gives [[5/2]]. Its color name is Trisa-quinguti. An obvious 17-limit interpretation of the generator is ~18/17, which makes Saquinsoti.

; [[Quindromeda family]] (P8, P4/5)

: This tempers out the [[quindromeda comma]], {{monzo| 56 -28 -5 }}. The generator is ~4428675/4194304, five of them gives ~4/3, and 28 of them gives the fifth harmonic, [[5/1]]. Its color name is Quinsa-quinguti. An obvious 17-limit interpretation of the generator is ~18/17, which makes Saquinsoti.

; [[Amity family]] (P8, P11/5)

: This tempers out the [[amity comma]], 1600000/1594323 ({{monzo| 9 -13 5 }}). The generator is {{nowrap| 243/200 {{=}} ~339.5{{c}} }}, five of which make ~8/3. 5/4 is equated to 4 octaves minus 13 generators, or 2 fifths minus 3 generators. Its color name is Saquinyoti. An obvious 11-limit interpretation of the generator is 11/9, which makes Saquinloti. An obvious 13-limit interpretation of the generator is 39/32, which makes Lala-quinthoti.

; [[Magic family]] (P8, P12/5)

: The magic family tempers out {{monzo| -10 -1 5 }} (3125/3072), known as the [[magic comma]] or small diesis, which is the difference between five 5/4's (3125/2048) and a 3/1. The generator is itself an approximate 5/4. The magic family includes [[16edo|16-]], [[19edo|19-]], [[22edo|22-]], [[25edo|25-]], and [[41edo]] among its possible tunings, with the last being near-optimal. Its color name is Laquinyoti.  

; [[Fifive family]] (P8/2, P5/5)

: This tempers out the [[fifive comma]], {{monzo| -1 -14 10 }} (9765625/9565938). The period is ~4374/3125 ({{monzo| 1 7 -5 }}), two of which make an octave. The generator is ~27/25, five of which make ~3/2. 5/4 is equated to 7 generators minus 1 period. Its color name is Saquinbiyoti.  

; [[Quintosec family]] (P8/5, P5/2)

: This tempers out the [[quintosec comma]], 140737488355328/140126044921875 ({{monzo| 47 -15 -10 }}). The period is ~524288/455625 ({{monzo| 19 -6 -4 }}), five of which equals an octave. The generator is ~16/15. A period plus a generator makes half a fifth. 5/4 is equated to 3 periods minus 3 generators. Its color name is Quadsa-quinbiguti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the period is 8/7.  

; [[Trisedodge family]] (P8/5, P4/3)

: This tempers out the [[trisedodge comma]], 30958682112/30517578125 ({{monzo| 19 10 -15 }}). The period is {{nowrap| ~144/125 {{=}} 240{{c}} }}. The generator is ~6/5. Six periods minus three generators equals ~4/3. 5/4 is equated to 2 generators minus 1 period. Its color name is Saquintriguti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the period is 8/7.  

; Ampersand family (P8, P5/6)  

: This tempers out the [[ampersand comma]], 34171875/33554432 ({{monzo| -25 7 6 }}). Its only member is [[ampersand]]. The generator is ~16/15, of which six make ~3/2. 5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 7 generators. Its color name is Lala-tribiyoti. If the generator is also equated to ~15/14, and three generators to ~11/9, one gets the [[miracle]] temperament.

; [[Kleismic family]] (P8, P12/6)

: The kleismic family of temperaments tempers out the [[15625/15552|kleisma]], 15625/15552 ({{monzo| -6 -5 6 }}), which is the difference between six 6/5's and 3/1. It takes a slightly sharpened minor third as a generator, optimally tuned about 1.4 cents sharp. 5/4 is equated to 5 generators minus 1 octave. The kleismic family includes [[15edo|15-]], [[19edo|19-]], [[34edo|34-]], [[49edo|49-]], [[53edo|53-]], [[72edo|72-]], [[87edo|87-]] and [[140edo]] among its possible tunings. Its color name is Tribiyoti.  

; [[Semicomma family|Orson or semicomma family]] (P8, P12/7)

: The [[semicomma]] (also known as Fokker's comma), 2109375/2097152 ({{monzo| -21 3 7 }}), is tempered out by the members of the semicomma family. Its generator is ~75/64, seven of which equals ~3/1. 5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 3 generators. Its color name is Lasepyoti. Its generator has a natural interpretation as ~7/6, leading to the [[orwell|orwell or Sepruti]] temperament.

; [[Wesley family]] (P8, ccP4/7)

: This tempers out the [[wesley comma]], 78125/73728 ({{monzo| -13 -2 7 }}). The generator is {{nowrap| ~125/96 {{=}} ~412{{c}} }}. Seven generators equals a double-compound fourth of ~16/3. 5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 2 generators. Its color name is Lasepyobiti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is 9/7, leading to the Lasepruti temperament. An obvious 3-limit interpretation of the generator is 81/64, implying [[29edo]].  

; [[Sensipent family]] (P8, ccP5/7)

: The sensipent family tempers out the [[sensipent comma]], 78732/78125 ({{monzo| 2 9 -7 }}), also known as the medium semicomma. Its generator is {{nowrap| ~162/125 {{=}} ~443{{c}} }}. Seven generators equals a double-compound fifth of ~6/1. 5/4 is equated to 9 generators minus 3 octaves. Tunings include [[8edo]], [[19edo]], [[46edo]], and [[65edo]]. Its color name is Sepguti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is 9/7, leading to the Sasepzoti temperament.  

; [[Vishnuzmic family]] (P8/2, P4/7)

: This tempers out the [[vishnuzma]], {{monzo| 23 6 -14 }}, or the amount by which seven chromatic semitones (25/24) fall short of a perfect fourth (4/3), or (4/3)/(25/24)⁷. The period is ~{{monzo| -11 -3 7 }} and the generator is ~25/24. 5/4 is equated to 1 period minus 3 generators. Its color name is Sasepbiguti.  

; [[Unicorn family]] (P8, P4/8)

: This tempers out the [[unicorn comma]], 1594323/1562500 ({{monzo| -2 13 -8 }}). The generator is {{nowrap| ~250/243 {{=}} ~62{{c}} }} and eight of them equal ~4/3. Its color name is Laquadbiguti.  

; [[Würschmidt family]] (P8, ccP5/8)

: The würschmidt family tempers out the [[würschmidt comma]], 393216/390625 ({{monzo| 17 1 -8 }}). Würschmidt itself has a generator of a major third, eight of which give a 6/1 (the 6th harmonic, or a double-compound perfect fifth); that is, {{nowrap| (5/4)⁸⋅(393216/390625) {{=}} 6 }}. It tends to generate the same mos scales as the [[magic]] temperament, but is tuned slightly more accurately. Both [[31edo]] and [[34edo]] can be used as würschmidt tunings, as can [[65edo]], which is quite accurate. Its color name is Saquadbiguti.  

; [[Escapade family]] (P8, P4/9)

: This tempers out the [[escapade comma]], {{monzo| 32 -7 -9 }}, which is the difference between nine just major thirds and seven just fourths. The generator is {{monzo| -14 3 4 }} of ~55{{c}} and nine of them equal ~4/3. Seven of them equal ~5/4, thus two of them equal ~16/15. Its color name is Sasa-tritriguti. An obvious 11-limit interpretation of the generator is 33/32, leading to the Trisa-tritriluti temperament.   

; [[Mabila family]] (P8, c4P4/10)

: The mabila family tempers out the [[mabila comma]], {{monzo| 28 -3 -10 }} (268435456/263671875). The generator is {{nowrap| ~512/375 {{=}} ~530{{c}} }}, three generators equals ~5/2 and ten of them equals a quadruple-compound fourth of ~64/3. Its color name is Sasa-quinbiguti.

; [[Sycamore family]] (P8, P5/11)

: The sycamore family tempers out the [[sycamore comma]], {{monzo| -16 -6 11 }} (48828125/47775744), which is the amount by which five stacked chromatic semitones, 25/24, exceed 6/5, and hence also the amount six exceeds 5/4. Eleven of these generators equals ~3/2. Its color name is Laleyoti.  

; [[Quartonic family]] (P8, P4/11)

: The quartonic family tempers out the [[quartonic comma]], {{monzo| 3 -18 11 }} (390625000/387420489). The generator is {{nowrap| ~250/243 {{=}} ~45{{c}} }}, seven generators equals ~6/5, and eleven generators equals ~4/3. Its color name is Saleyoti. An obvious 7-limit interpretation of the generator is ~36/35.

; [[Lafa family]] (P8, P12/12)

: This tempers out the [[lafa comma]], {{monzo| 77 -31 -12 }}. The generator is {{nowrap| ~4982259375/4294967296 {{=}} ~258.6{{c}} }}. Twelve generators equals a twelfth (~3/1). 5/4 is equated to 7 octaves minus 31 generators. Its color name is Tribisa-quadtriguti.  

; [[Ditonmic family]] (P8, c4P4/13)

: This tempers out the [[ditonma]], {{monzo| -27 -2 13 }} (1220703125/1207959552). Thirteen ~{{monzo| -12 -1 6 }} generators of about 407{{c}} equals a quadruple-compound fourth. 5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 2 generators. An obvious 3-limit interpretation of the generator is 81/64, which implies 53edo, which is a good tuning for this high-accuracy family of temperaments. Its color name is Lala-theyoti.  

; [[Luna family]] (P8, ccP4/15)

=== Clans defined by a 2.3.7 comma ===

These are defined by a no-5's 7-limit (color name: za) comma. See also [[subgroup temperaments]].

If a 5-limit comma defines a family of rank-2 temperaments, then we might say a comma belonging to another [[subgroup]] of the 7-limit can define a clan. In particular we might say a triprime comma (one with exactly three primes in the factorization) can define a clan. We can modify the definition of [[normal lists|normal comma list]] for clans by changing the ordering of prime numbers, and using this to sort out clan relationships.

Even less familiar than rank-2 temperaments are the [[rank-3 temperament]]s, generated by a set of three intervals. Since these temperaments may be mapped in many different ways, it is more common to identify rank-3 temperaments by the commas they temper out. They can also be identified by pergen. The third generator in a rank-3 pergen is usually a comma, but sometimes it is some fraction of a 5-limit or 7-limit interval.

=== Families defined by a 2.3.5 comma ===

Every 5-limit (color name: ya) comma defines a rank-3 family, thus every comma in the list of rank-2 2.3.5 families could be included here. If nothing else is tempered out, the prime subgroup is assumed to be 2.3.5.7, and we have a 7-limit (color name: yaza) temperament in which one of the generators is ~7/1. This generator can be reduced to ~7/4, which can be reduced further to ~64/63. Hence in all the pergens below, the ^1 or /1 generator is ~64/63. An additional 7-limit or 11-limit comma creates an 11-limit (color name: yazala) temperament, and so forth. All these examples are 7-limit:

; [[Didymus rank three family|Didymus rank-3 family]] (P8, P5, ^1)

: These are the rank-3 temperaments tempering out the didymus or meantone comma, 81/80. Its color name is Guti.  

; [[Diaschismic rank three family|Diaschismic rank-3 family]] (P8/2, P5, /1)

: These are the rank-3 temperaments tempering out the diaschisma, {{monzo| 11 -4 -2 }} (2048/2025). The half-octave period is ~45/32. Its color name is Saguguti.

=== Families defined by a 2.3.7 comma ===

Every no-5's 7-limit (color name: za) comma defines a rank-3 family, thus every comma in the list of rank-2 2.3.7 families could be included here. If nothing else is tempered out, the prime subgroup is assumed to be 2.3.5.7, and we have a 7-limit (color name: yaza) temperament in which one of the generators is ~5/1. This generator can be reduced to ~5/4, which may be reduced further to ~81/80. Hence in all the pergens below, {{nowrap| ^1 {{=}} ~81/80 }}. An additional 5-limit or 11-limit comma creates a 11-limit (color name: yazala) temperament, and so forth. All these examples are 7-limit:

; [[Archytas family]] (P8, P5, ^1)

: Archytas temperament tempers out 64/63. This comma equates every 7-limit interval to some 3-limit interval. If 81/80 were tempered out too, the otonal tetrad 4:5:6:7 would be identified with the dominant seventh chord. Its color name is Ruti.  

; [[Garischismic family]] (P8, P5, ^1)

: A garischismic temperament is one which tempers out the garischisma, {{monzo| 25 -14 0 -1 }} (33554432/33480783). Its color name is Sasaruti.  

: This clan tempers out the Laruru comma, {{monzo| -7 8 0 -2 }} (6561/6272). Two ~81/56 periods equal an octave. The generator is ~3/2, and four generators minus three periods equals ~7/4. The major second ~9/8 is divided in half, with each half equated to ~28/27. See also the diaschismic or Saguguti temperament and the jubilismic or Biruyoti temperament.

; [[Semaphoresmic family]] (P8, P4/2, ^1)

: Semaphoresmic temperament tempers out 49/48 and thereby identifies the septimal minor third 7/6 with the septimal whole tone 8/7. It also splits the fourth into two of these intervals; hence the name, which sounds like ''semi-fourth''. See also [[semaphore]]. Its color name is Zozoti.  

; [[Gamelismic family]] (P8, P5/3, ^1)

: Not to be confused with the gamelismic clan of rank-2 temperaments, the gamelismic family are those rank-3 temperaments which temper out the gamelisma, {{monzo| -10 1 0 3 }} (1029/1024). In the pergen, P5/3 is ~8/7. Its color name is Latrizoti.  

; Stearnsmic family (P8/2, P4/3, ^1)

: Stearnsmic temperaments temper out the stearnsma, {{monzo| 1 10 0 -6 }} (118098/117649). In the pergen, P8/2 is ~343/243 and P4/3 is ~54/49. Its color name is Latribiruti.  

=== Families defined by a 2.3.5.7 comma ===

Color name: yaza.  

: The marvel comma equates every 7-limit interval to some 5-limit interval, therefore the generators are the same as for 5-limit JI: 2/1, 3/1 and 5/1. These may be reduced to 2/1, 3/2 and 5/4, and 5/4 may be reduced further to 81/80. Hence in the pergen, {{nowrap| ^1 {{=}} ~81/80 }}. Its color name is Ruyoyoti.  

; [[Starling family]] (P8, P5, ^1)

: Starling tempers out the [[starling comma]] a.k.a. septimal semicomma, {{monzo| 1 2 -3 1 }} (126/125), the difference between three 6/5's plus one 7/6, and an octave. It divides 10/7 into two 6/5's. Like marvel, it has the same generators as 5-limit JI. An excellent tuning for starling is [[77edo]], but 31, 46 or 58 also work nicely.

In the pergen, ^1 is either ~64/63 or ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Saluzoti.  

; [[Semicanousmic clan]] (P8, P5, ^1)

: These temper out the [[semicanousma]], {{monzo| -2 -6 -1 0 4 }} (14641/14580). 5/4 is equated to a 2.3.11 (color name: ila) interval, thus every 2.3.5.11 interval is equated to a 2.3.11 interval, and both the pergen and the lattice are identical to that of 2.3.11-subgroup JI. In the pergen, ^1 is either ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Quadlo-aguti.  

; [[Semiporwellismic clan]] (P8, P5, ^1)

: These temper out the [[semiporwellisma]], {{monzo| 14 -3 -1 0 -2 }} (16384/16335). 5/4 is equated to an 2.3.11 (color name: ila) interval, thus every 2.3.5.11 interval is equated to a 2.3.11 interval, and both the pergen and the lattice are identical to that of 2.3.11-subgroup JI. In the pergen, ^1 is either ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Saluluguti.

: These temper out the werckisma, {{monzo| -3 2 -1 2 -1 }} (441/440). 11/8 is equated to {{monzo| -6 2 -1 2 }} and 5/4 is equated to {{monzo| -5 2 0 2 -1 }}, thus the lattice can be thought of as either 7-limit JI or no-5's 11-limit JI. In the pergen, ^1 is ~64/63, and /1 is either ~81/80, ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Luzozoguti.  

; Swetismic family (P8, P5, ^1, /1)

: These temper out the swetisma, {{monzo| 2 3 1 -2 -1 }} (540/539). 11/8 is equated to {{monzo| -1 3 1 -2 }} (135/98) and 5/4 is equated to {{monzo| -4 -3 0 2 1 }}, thus the lattice can be thought of as either 7-limit JI or no-5's 11-limit JI. In the pergen, ^1 is ~64/63, and /1 can be either ~81/80, ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Lururuyoti.  

; Lehmerismic family (P8, P5, ^1, /1)

: These temper out the lehmerisma, {{monzo| -4 -3 2 -1 2 }} (3025/3024). Since 7/4 is equated to a no-7's 11-limit (color name: yala) interval, both the pergen and the lattice are identical to that of no-7's 11-limit JI. In the pergen, {{nowrap| ^1 {{=}} ~81/80 }} and /1 is either ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Loloruyoyoti.  

; Kalismic family (P8/2, P5, ^1, /1)

: These temper out the kalisma, {{monzo| -3 4 -2 -2 2 }} (9801/9800). The octave is split into two ~99/70 periods. In the pergen, ^1 could be either ~81/80 or ~64/63, and /1 could be either ~64/63 (if ^1 is not), ~33/32 or ~729/704. Its color name is Biloruguti.
