The second comma of the [[Normal lists #Normal interval list|normal comma list]] defines which [[7-limit]] family member we are looking at. August adds [[36/35]], augene [[64/63]], hexe [[256/245]], hemiaug [[245/243]], and triforce [[49/48]]. Hexe splits the [[period]] to 1/6 octave, and hemiaug the [[generator]], giving quartertones instead of semitones.

{{Main| Augene }}
Augene tempers out 64/63 and 126/125. It may be described as the {{nowrap| 12 & 15 }} temperament. [[27edo]] and [[39edo]] in the 39d val make for good tunings.

== August ==
== August ==
August tempers out 36/35 and 225/224. It may be described as the {{nowrap| 9 & 12 }} temperament. Unlike augene, august calls for a flat tuning of the fifth, and besides [[12edo]], [[21edo]] is among the possible tunings.

== Hexe ==
Hexe tempers out 50/49 and may be described as {{nowrap| 6 & 12 }}, viewed as [[6edo|6et]] with an independent generator for prime 3. Its ploidacot is hexaploid monocot.

Triforce tempers out 49/48 and may be described as {{nowrap| 9 & 15 }}. Its ploidacot is triploid alpha-dicot. [[24edo]] and [[39edo]] are among the possible tunings.

==== Semitriforce ====
This extension splits the period into 1/6-octave for ~44/39. Its ploidacot is hexaploid dicot.

== Hemiaug ==
== Hemiaug ==
Hemiaug tempers out 245/243 and may be described as {{nowrap| 24 & 27 }}. The generator may be taken as ~14/9, but also a neutral third or a neutral second that stand in for 11/9~16/13 and 12/11~13/12 in the higher limits, respectively. Hemiaug's ploidacot is triploid dicot. [[27edo]] makes for a recommendable tuning in the 7-limit, but [[51edo]] serves better in the higher limits.

== Hemiug ==
Hemiug tempers out 1323/1250 and may be described as {{nowrap| 21 & 24 }}. The generator is a similar interval but for ~32/21 instead of ~14/9, and the ploidacot is triploid dicot, the same as hemiaug.

Oodako tempers out 2401/2400 and may be described as {{nowrap| 21 & 27 }}. It is generated by a quarter of a fifth, which stands in for ~28/25. Its ploidacot is triploid tetracot.

== Niner ==
== Niner ==
Niner gives 9 as the complexity of an otonal tetrad, tying it with augene as a temperament supported by 27edo. Niner[18], therefore, has nine such tetrads.
Niner tempers out 686/675 and may be described as the {{nowrap| 9 & 27 }} temperament. Its ploidacot is enneaploid monocot. It gives 9 as the complexity of a [[harmonic seventh chord]], tying it with augene as a temperament supported by 27edo. Niner[18], therefore, has nine such tetrads. 27edo, [[36edo]] and [[63edo]] in the 63c val are among the possible tunings.

== Trug ==
== Trug ==
Trug tempers out 360/343. It is generated by an interval of ~48/35, tuned very close to a perfect fourth, but the perfect fourth is mapped to three generator steps and a period. Its ploidacot is triploid alpha-tricot. 12edo is about as accurate as it can be tuned.
