The '''catakleismic''' [[regular temperament|temperament]] is one of the best [[7-limit]] [[extension]]s of [[hanson]], the [[5-limit]] temperament [[tempering out]] the [[15625/15552|kleisma]] (15625/15552), though it is naturally viewed as a [[2.3.5.7.13 subgroup|2.3.5.7.13-]][[subgroup]] temperament, first extending hanson to include the [[harmonic]] [[13/1|13]] (called [[cata]]), and then to include [[7/1|7]].  


Catakleismic is naturally viewed as a 2.3.5.7.13 temperament, first extending hanson to include the harmonic 13 (called '''cata'''), and then to include 7. Various reasonable extensions exist for harmonic 11. These are ''undecimal catakleismic'', mapping 11 to -21 generator steps, ''cataclysmic'', to +32 steps, ''catalytic'', to +51 steps, and cataleptic, to -2 steps.  
In addition to the kleisma, catakleismic tempers out the [[marvel comma]] (225/224), equating the interval of [[25/24]] (which is already equated to [[26/25]] and [[27/26]] in the [[2.3.5.13 subgroup|2.3.5.13-subgroup]] interpretation of kleismic) to [[28/27]]. This forces a flatter interpretation of 25/24, which is found four [[6/5]] generators up, and therefore a flatter interpretation of the generator, which confines reasonable catakleismic tunings to the portion of the kleismic tuning spectrum between [[19edo]] and [[34edo]]—or further, between [[19edo]] and [[53edo]], as beyond 53, the [[countercata]] mapping of 7 is more reasonable, with the two meeting at 53edo. It can additionally be defined by tempering out the marvel comma and the [[ragisma]] (4375/4374), which finds [[7/6]] at the square of [[27/25]], which is found at the square of 25/24. Therefore the 7th harmonic appears 22 generators up the chain.


See [[Kleismic family #Catakleismic]] for technical data.

=== As a detemperament of 19et ===
[[File: Catakleismic 19et Detempering.png|thumb|Catakleismic as a 72-tone 19et detempering]]
 
Catakleismic is naturally considered as a [[detemperament]] of the [[19edo|19 equal temperament]]. The diagram on the right shows a 72-tone detempered scale, with a generator range of -35 to +36. 72 is the largest number of tones for a mos where intervals in the 19 categories do not overlap. Each category is divided into three or four qualities separated by 19 generator steps, which represent the syntonic comma. Combining this division with the minor and major diatonic qualities of the 19 equal temperament, catakleismic gives us seven or eight qualities for each diatonic category in addition to the four qualities for the categories corresponding to [[interseptimal interval]]s.
 
Notice also the little interval between the largest of a category and the smallest of the next. This interval spans 53 generator steps, so it vanishes in 53edo, but is tuned to the same size as the syntonic comma in 72edo. 125edo tunes it to one half the size of the syntonic comma, which may be seen as a good compromise.

The catakleismic temperament is one of the best 7-limit extensions of hanson, the 5-limit temperament tempering out the kleisma (15625/15552), though it is naturally viewed as a 2.3.5.7.13-subgroup temperament, first extending hanson to include the harmonic 13 (called cata), and then to include 7.

In addition to the kleisma, catakleismic tempers out the marvel comma (225/224), equating the interval of 25/24 (which is already equated to 26/25 and 27/26 in the 2.3.5.13-subgroup interpretation of kleismic) to 28/27. This forces a flatter interpretation of 25/24, which is found four 6/5 generators up, and therefore a flatter interpretation of the generator, which confines reasonable catakleismic tunings to the portion of the kleismic tuning spectrum between 19edo and 34edo—or further, between 19edo and 53edo, as beyond 53, the countercata mapping of 7 is more reasonable, with the two meeting at 53edo. It can additionally be defined by tempering out the marvel comma and the ragisma (4375/4374), which finds 7/6 at the square of 27/25, which is found at the square of 25/24. Therefore the 7th harmonic appears 22 generators up the chain.

Various reasonable extensions exist for harmonic 11. These are undecimal catakleismic, mapping 11 to −21 generator steps, cataclysmic, to +32 steps, catalytic, to +51 steps, and cataleptic, to −2 steps. Undecimal catakleismic is shown in the tables below; additionally, tempering out 286/285 gives us an extension to prime 19 at -18 generator steps.

As a detemperament of 19et

Catakleismic as a 72-tone 19et detempering

Catakleismic is naturally considered as a detemperament of the 19 equal temperament. The diagram on the right shows a 72-tone detempered scale, with a generator range of -35 to +36. 72 is the largest number of tones for a mos where intervals in the 19 categories do not overlap. Each category is divided into three or four qualities separated by 19 generator steps, which represent the syntonic comma. Combining this division with the minor and major diatonic qualities of the 19 equal temperament, catakleismic gives us seven or eight qualities for each diatonic category in addition to the four qualities for the categories corresponding to interseptimal intervals.

Notice also the little interval between the largest of a category and the smallest of the next. This interval spans 53 generator steps, so it vanishes in 53edo, but is tuned to the same size as the syntonic comma in 72edo. 125edo tunes it to one half the size of the syntonic comma, which may be seen as a good compromise.
