Würschmidt: Difference between revisions

m if prime 11 was included (which i think it should be but idk how to calculate minimax), then a 31 note (not 34) MOS would make sense to reach 3 * 11 = 33 otonally. as is, 23 is at 14 gens, so 25 notes is very generous (barely allows 27 = 3^3 to be reached)

'''Würschmidt''' is a [[rank-2 temperament|rank-2]] [[regular temperament|temperament]] and parent of the [[würschmidt family]], characterized by tempering out the [[würschmidt comma]] ([[ratio]]: 393216/390625, {{monzo|legend=1| 17 1 -8 }}). It can be treated as analogous to [[schismatic]] with the roles of the primes 3 and 5 reversed, since würschmidt is [[generator|generated]] by a [[5/4|classical major third (5/4)]], very slightly sharpened so that eight of them make the sixth harmonic ([[6/1]]), giving [[3/2]] the same complexity [[5/4]] does in schismatic, but with comparable accuracy on the part of the generator. Four generators, therefore, reach the interval [[625/512]], which is equated to [[768/625]] and functions as a neutral third.

Another useful interpretation of the würschmidt comma is that it makes the interval of [[25/24]] equal to two-thirds the size of [[16/15]]. This can be exploited, as 16/15 factorizes into near-2:1 parts as {{nowrap|([[24/23]]) &times; ([[46/45]])}}, and therefore it is illogical ''not'' to set 25/24 equal to 24/23 (and [[128/125]] equal to 46/45) as well and set the remainder, 46/45, equal to a third of 16/15, by tempering {{nowrap|S24 {{=}} [[576/575]]}} and {{nowrap|S46<sup>2</sup> &times; S47 {{=}} [[12167/12150]]}} in the 2.3.5.23 [[subgroup]]. A perhaps more direct way of seeing why equating 25/24 with 24/23 is natural is that würschmidt's generator is a slightly sharpened 5/4 with a slightly flat 3/2 in an optimised tuning, so that 25/24 is sharpened and 24/n is flattened, so equating it with 24/23 takes advantage of the natural tempering tendency. 14 generators turn out to stack to [[23/1]], and notably, 6/1 stacked 7 times and 23/1 stacked four times (at 56 generators) differ only by the 0.59-cent comma [[279936/279841]] = {{nowrap|[[2401/2400|S49]] / ([[25921/25920|S161]]<sup>2</sup>)}}.

Strong extensions to the [[7-limit]] include [[würschmidt family#septimal würschmidt|septimal würschmidt]] (tempering out [[225/224]], finding 7 at +18 generator steps), [[worschmidt]] (tempering out [[126/125]], finding 7 at -13 generator steps), and [[whirrschmidt]] (tempering out [[4375/4374]], finding 7 at +52 generator steps), but these are either considerably higher-damage or much higher-complexity than 5-limit würschmidt. In fact, the best septimal extension may be the weak extension [[hemiwürschmidt]], which splits the ~5/4 generator into two ~[[28/25]]'s by tempering out [[3136/3125]] alongside [[6144/6125]] (notably, in the 2.3.5.7.23 subgroup, this is the extension that tempers out the tiny comma {{nowrap|S161 {{=}} [[25921/25920]]}}).

Therefore, it may be advisable to consider würschmidt a no-sevens system, specifically in the 2.3.5.11 subgroup, where an extension that equates 128/125 with [[45/44]] and therefore 625/512 with [[11/9]] (by tempering out [[243/242]] and [[5632/5625]]), finding the 11th harmonic at 20 generators up, is highly natural in addition to the aforementioned extension to prime 23.
