'''Miracle''' is a [[regular temperament]] discovered by [[George Secor]] in 1974 which splits a tempered [[3/2]] into six [[generator]]s, called ''[[secor]]s'' (after George), that serve as both [[15/14]] and [[16/15]] semitones. A stack of two generators represents [[8/7]], and a stack of seven generators represents [[8/5]]. It is a member of ~~both~~ the [[marvel temperaments]], by [[tempering out]] [[225/224]], the [[gamelismic clan]], by tempering out [[1029/1024]], and the [[breedsmic temperaments]], by tempering out [[2401/2400]]. It is naturally a full [[11-limit]] temperament, treating the neutral third from three generators as [[11/9]], tempering out [[243/242]], [[385/384]], [[441/440]], and [[540/539]]. It is supported by the highly notable [[EDO|edos]] [[31edo|31]], [[41edo|41]], and [[72edo|72]], with 72edo being an especially good tuning. (There is an alternative mapping for 11 known as [[revelation]], but there is little reason to use it unless you are using [[31edo]], in which case it is identical to miracle anyway.)

Miracle is an exceptionally efficient linear temperament. It is quite accurate, with [[TOP]] error only 0.63 [[cent]]s/[[octave]], meaning intervals of the [[11-odd-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] are represented with only one or two cents of error. Yet it is also very low-complexity (efficient), as evidenced by the high density of 11-odd-limit ratios in the [[#Interval chain]]. At least one inversion of every interval in the 11-odd-limit tonality diamond is represented within 22 secors of the starting value.
