The '''marvel''' temperament is the rank-3 temperament tempering out [[225/224]], the marvel comma. It has a canonical 11-limit extension adding [[385/384]] and [[540/539]] to the comma list.

'''Marvel''' is a [[rank-3 temperament]] with the same [[lattice]] structure as [[5-limit]] [[JI]], while identifying the [[7/4|harmonic seventh (7/4)]] as a stack of two [[15/8|classical major sevenths (15/8)]] [[octave reduction|octave-reduced]], [[tempering out]] [[225/224]]. It is the head of the [[marvel family]].  


See [[Marvel family #Marvel]] for technical data.  
Marvel tends to tune [[5/4]] flat, such that a stack of two such thirds give a sharp [[14/9]], and a stack of three such thirds give a sub-octave of [[35/18]] just short of the octave by a quartertone of [[36/35]]. The canonical [[11-limit]] [[extension]], sometimes aliased ''unimarv'', identifies the quartertone as [[33/32]], so that [[11/8]] is that plus a [[4/3|perfect fourth]]. This adds [[385/384]] and [[540/539]] to the comma list and makes it a member of both [[keenanismic temperaments|keenansimic]] and [[swetismic temperaments]].
 
The temperament was named by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in 2002–2003, when the 11-limit version was found first<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_5145.html#5184 Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Relative complexity and scale construction''] – first mention of ''marvel''.</ref><ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_5687.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Top 135 11-limit planar temperaments''] – establishment as an 11-limit temperament.</ref>. Gene carried it to the 7-limit restriction in 2004<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_50829.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Marvel'']</ref>.
 
Extending marvel to the 13-limit is not as obvious. Gene has chosen '''helios''', tempering out [[351/350]], as the canonical extension, but '''hecate''', tempering out [[325/324]] and [[729/728]], arguably makes more sense as it is closer in tuning<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_101722.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''13-limit marvel'']</ref>. Hecate has a natural extension to the no-17 19-limit, by tempering out [[400/399]] and [[513/512]].

Marvel can be notated the same as [[5-limit]] [[just intonation]] since they share the same lattice structure.
Marvel can be notated the same as [[5-limit]] [[just intonation]] since they share the same lattice structure. One way to do this is to take the conventional [[circle-of-fifths notation]] with an additional module of accidentals for the [[81/80]] comma. In this system, 5/4 is a major third, 7/4 an augmented sixth, and 11/8 a double diminished 5th.

Alternatively, it can be notated the same as full prime-limit just intonation, with a distinct accidental module for each prime harmonic. That makes some intervals more intuitive, at the cost of hiding the structure of marvel tempering. For example, it is customary of the 5/4 to be a major third, and 7/4 to be a minor seventh. As a result, the fact that the 14/9 is a stack of two 5/4's is not revealed, and the related chords can be confusing.
Alternatively, it can be notated the same as full prime-limit just intonation, with a distinct accidental pair for each prime. That makes some intervals more intuitive, at the cost of hiding the structure of marvel tempering. For example, it is customary of the 5/4 to be a major third, and 7/4 to be a minor seventh. As a result, the fact that the 14/9 is a stack of two 5/4's is not revealed, and the related chords can be less convenient.
 
== Chords and harmony ==
Marvel enables [[essentially tempered chord]]s of [[marvel chords|marvel]], [[keenanismic chords|keenanismic]], [[swetismic chords|swetismic]], and [[undecimal marvel chords|undecimal marvel]].  


== Chords ==
Extending the temperament to the 13-limit through 325/324, resulting in hecate, enables chords of [[marveltwin chords|marveltwin]] and [[squbemic chords|squbemic]]. [[Hecate hexad]] is a chord peculiar to this temperament. Alternatively, helios enables chords of [[ratwolfsmic chords|ratwolfsmic]].
* [[Marvel chords]]
 
* [[Undecimal marvel chords]]
Alternative 11-limit extensions give different sets of chords. One notable example, tempering out [[441/440]], enables [[prodigy chords]].

== Tunings ==
In the 7-limit, the optimal way such as that taken by [[TE]] and derivatives to close out the comma 225/224 is to tune primes 3 and 5 flat, and 2 and 7 sharp. If we tune the octave pure, the other inclinations remain. This indicates that the diminished third [[~]][[256/225]] should be sharp (towards [[~]][[8/7]]), the augmented second [[~]][[75/64]] be flat (towards [[~]][[7/6]]), the diminished fourth [[~]][[32/25]] be sharp (towards [[~]][[9/7]]) and the tritone [[~]][[45/32]] be flat (towards [[~]][[7/5]]), such that every [[7-limit]] [[9-odd-limit]] interval is tuned between itself and the [[5-limit]] interpretation it is separated from by [[225/224]]. If we take these as hard constraints, then [[53edo]] and [[84edo]] are the smallest edo tunings to satisfy them, but if overtempering is allowed, many smaller edos are possible, such as [[31edo|31-]] and [[41edo]]. Interestingly, [[72edo]], though very performant as a 7- and 11-limit tuning, is overtempered for some of these constraints, whereas 53edo, though satisfying these constraints, tempers the intervals closer to the more complex [[5-limit]] interpretations, though the 7-limit concordances of the 9-odd-limit still clearly work. [[84edo]], another superset of 12edo, is an interesting edo to look at for its high performance in large odd-limits. Going up to larger edos, [[125edo|125-]], [[166edo|166-]], [[178edo|178-]], [[197edo|197-]], and [[240edo]] are all great choices with different intonational characteristics.
The marvel extension hecate has the no-17's [[19-limit]] as its subgroup, and helios is in the 13-limit. They merge in the rank-2 temperament [[catakleismic]], which can be conceptualized as accepting both rank-3 marvel structures simultaneously. One such tuning is excellently given by [[125edo]]. If we are looking for a small edo tuning instead, 53edo and 72edo are also reasonable edo tunings for the full no-17's 19-limit catakleismic, though in 53edo the 11 and 19 are a little off and in 72edo the 13 and 19 are a little off instead; 72edo is positioned better as a full [[17-limit]] marvel system while 53edo is positioned better as a (potentially no-11's) [[13-limit]] marvel system. If we focus on the 11-limit of undecimal marvel (discarding the mapping of 13), 31edo and 41edo are the smallest to clearly succeed, though many accept 41edo's mapping of [[~]][[13/8]] to the neutral sixth and some accept that mapping for 31edo as contextually usable too.
