Ultimate can be easily defined in the 13-limit as nullifying the [[2080/2079|sinaisma]], [[minisma]], and [[eufalesma]]. This indirectly means that the [[Symbiotic comma|salozo]], [[Nexus comma|tribilo]], [[Wilschisma|sathoyo]], [[Olympia|salururu]], [[Garischisma|sasaru]], [[Argyria|lolotrizo]] commas, among an infinitude more, are all nullified too. | Ultimate can be easily defined in the 13-limit as nullifying the [[2080/2079|sinaisma]], [[minisma]], and [[eufalesma]].

Since the chain takes much longer to close, ¡ and ! may be used to raise or lower by a [[2835/2816|fwiwisma]] (a half-poma, as a result of tempering out kalisma and thus an even-numbered edo). This tuning is optimal and technically usable in the Lumatone, but only as a subset, requiring more than one preset to reach within the [[Standard Lumatone mapping for Pythagorean]]. The cassandra layout can be used in a guitar with the [[skip fretting system 94 7 16]]. However, in a 6-string guitar there will be no other unisons. | ||

The best course of action for detempering Ultimate is to observe the garischisma, resulting in rank-4 olympic, which is just {S64, S65}. Notationwise, this results in spliting the saruyoma into a schisma (◿/◹) and a garischisma (◺/◸). Unlike in JI, where the schisma is around half the garischisma, here the schisma is ~1.6x LARGER, not smaller. | [[Olympic|This]].

Everything else is the same. v↑ for 81/80, ⇑ for 33/32, v⇑ for 1053/1024. It's something I don't think I'll ever see myself doing because this accuracy is enough to represent highly fine edos such as 494, 764, or 935edo, which is already too much for me. | Everything else is the same. v↑ for 81/80, ⇑ for 33/32, v⇑ for 1053/1024.

Extensions to the yazalathana are bad: the strong ones keep either of 1540/1539 or 1729/1728, and a decent but weak one adding 5776/5775 needs you to split the septimal comma in halves, which is not ideal. Acknowledgements to [[Flora Canou]] for this insight. In short: Olympic kinda sucks: it is better, but not ''way'' better than Ultimate, which for a new dimension to worry about is not justifiable; unlike the jump from cassandra to Ultimate being a quantum leap. | |||

Olympic STILL not enough? Split your losses and use [[5767168/5767125|{S64/S65}]]. Now you observe the olympia and get a schismina accidental. An olympia is 3 of these schisminas. You could write this as dots above or below the accidentals but this is possibly getting a tad crowded. ↑ is 64/63 and 81/80 is v↑. ⇑̱ is 33/32 whilst ⇑ is 4096/3969. | Olympic STILL not enough?

The people at sagittal.org had already declared its own version of this notation to be of "Insane" precision, so if you need anything finer, you are ''beyond insane''. Or, to be more crude... '''batshit''' insane. | ||
To recap: 12edo (apotomes), Cassandra (+pomas), Ultimate (+saruyomas), Olympic (+sasarumas), {S64/S65} (+schisminas). | Unlike Olympic, this one is undeniably '''WAY''' more accurate, at least 100 times more accurate. It can be extended to the whole 19-limit by adding S76/S77 and S2431 to the comma list, however, a tina is required to reach prime 17 and 19, which is close, but not equal to a third of a schismina. The tina is 10241/10240. 19/16 is /◿̄m3. 17/16 is \M'''⇓⇓̱'''M2. | ||

These are all the accidentals you need to know to write in Ultimate, and even beyond it. For most cases, there is no need to go beyond two of anything, in the case of pomas however, you can end up using three or even more if you don't respell enharmonically (if possible), or go too far down the chain of fifths. One instance is writing 5/4 above a 16/11, which is 20/11. Above a C, this is '''⇓'''G - ^'''↓⇓'''B. | |||
