::::: This list is good to have on hand. Perhaps I should make note of the the fact that this comma leads to essentially tempered chords- "ainic chords" in this case, and then make an article showing off some of these chords. Unfortunately, however I don't seem to have a good way of finding all the essentially tempered chords. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 08:38, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

== Forms of 17-limit Temperaments ==

Hey, Flora, what exactly do you mean when you say that we "don't know what form a 17-limit temperament should take"? --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 07:11, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

: Note it's not that we don't know what a 17-limit temperament is; it's that we haven't got examples of such pages for temperaments of a 17-limit comma. Quoting:

<pre>

If X is a 3- or 5-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-2 temperaments that temper it out.

If X is a 7-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-3 temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-2 temperaments that temper it out ("X clan" if the comma is a subgroup comma). See: Marvel family, Marvel temperaments.

If X is an 11-limit comma,

"X family" is for rank-4 temperaments that temper it out, and "X temperaments" is for rank-3 temperaments that temper it out. If the "X family" page isn't there (as it doesn't have many 13-limit branches), in "X temperaments" there is a brief of the rank-4 temperaments. See: Keenanismic family, Valinorsmic temperaments, Kalismic temperaments.

If X is an 13-limit comma,

there are only three such pages: The Archipelago, The Biosphere, Marveltwin, which list temperaments of various ranks.

</pre>

: So we haven't got "X temperaments" for 13-limit commas nor have we determined if there will be, let alone 17-limit. I suggest a discussion in [[Xenharmonic Wiki:Things to do]] if you feel like initiating that project. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 08:24, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
