'''Unidec''' is the [[regular temperament]] defined in the 7-limit by [[tempering out]] [[1029/1024]], the gamelisma, and [[4375/4374]], the ragisma, with the 11-limit extension adding [[385/384]] or [[441/440]] to the comma list, featuring a period of a semioctave and a generator of a classic whole tone.

'''Unidec''' is a [[regular temperament|temperament]] [[generator|generated]] by a wide major third representing [[80/63]] which can be taken as [[14/11]] from the [[11-limit]] onwards. Two generators minus a [[semi-octave]] [[period]] make a [[~]][[8/7]], and three ~8/7's make a perfect fifth of [[3/2]], [[tempering out]] [[1029/1024]], the gamelisma, and [[4375/4374]], the ragisma, with the 11-limit [[extension]] adding [[385/384]] or [[441/440]] to the comma list.  


There are two viable 13-limit extensions: '''hendec''' and '''ekadash'''.  
Unidec has two viable 13-limit extensions: hendec and ekadash, discussed in [[Unidec extensions]].

Unidec is a temperament generated by a wide major third representing 80/63 which can be taken as 14/11 from the 11-limit onwards. Two generators minus a semi-octave period make a ~8/7, and three ~8/7's make a perfect fifth of 3/2, tempering out 1029/1024, the gamelisma, and 4375/4374, the ragisma, with the 11-limit extension adding 385/384 or 441/440 to the comma list.

Unidec has two viable 13-limit extensions: hendec and ekadash, discussed in Unidec extensions.

See Gamelismic clan #Unidec for technical data.
