'''Logical tempering'''{{idio}} means using a [[regular temperament]] (called the '''logical temperament'''{{idio}}) to get “abstract” notes and intervals, but not directly the actual played notes. Different from “real” tempering, a logical temperament with [[torsion]] is allowed. The commas tempered out in the logical temperament are sometimes called “chromas”, which is a generalization of the concept of MOS [[chroma]]s. | '''Logical tempering'''{{idio}} means using a [[regular temperament]] (called the '''logical temperament'''{{idio}}) to get “abstract” notes and intervals, but not directly the actual played notes.

Multiple logical temperaments can be used at the same time. For example, one may first categorize intervals as alterations of [[3-limit]] intervals, and then logically temper out [[2187/2048]] to get [[5L 2s|diatonic]] degrees. | Multiple logical temperaments can be used at the same time.

When the actual notes are already tempered, to get unambiguous results, the logical temperament should be based on the tempered notes i.e. it should [[support]] the actual temperament. | When the actual notes are already tempered, to get unambiguous results, the logical temperament should be based on the tempered notes i.e. it should [[support]] the actual temperament. | ||
