Tempering out this comma alone in the 11-limit results in the rank-4 '''frostmic | [[Tempering out]] this comma alone in the 11-limit results in the rank-4 '''frostmic''' temperament (→ [[Catalog of rank-4 temperaments #Frostmic (245/242)]]), or in the 2.5.7.11 subgroup, the rank-3 '''frost''' temperament. In either case, a stack of two 11/7's is equated with a 5/2 major tenth, enabling [[frostmic chords]]. It is also used in the construction of the [[No-threes subgroup temperaments #Frostburn|frostburn]] temperament. | ||
