The '''dimcomp comma''' is a [[small comma|small]] [[7-limit]] [[comma]] measuring about 7.4 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which a stack of four quasi-tempered minor thirds (([[25/21]])<sup>4</sup>) exceeds an [[octave]].

~~The '''dimcomp comma'''~~ is a [[~~7-limit~~]] [[~~small~~ comma]] ~~measuring about 7.4 cents~~.

In terms of other commas, it is the difference between the [[marvel comma]] and the [[landscape comma]].

~~It is~~ the ~~amount by which four quasi~~-~~tempered minor thirds (~~[[~~25/21~~]]~~) exceed an octave. Hence~~, ~~tempering it out splits~~ the octave into four equal parts, and ~~EDOs~~ that are not multiples of 4 cannot be tempering it out.

== Temperaments ==

[[Tempering out]] this comma in the 7-limit leads to the [[dimcomp]] temperament, with the effect of splitting the octave into four equal parts, and edos that are not multiples of 4 cannot be tempering it out. Rank-2 temperaments tempering it out include [[diminished (temperament)|diminished]], [[compton]], [[bidia]], [[quadritikleismic]], [[octoid]], etc.

== See ~~also ==~~

See [[Dimcomp family]] for a number of rank-3 temperaments where it is tempered out.
