It may not seem like casablanca has much to offer, but peering under the hood a bit harder suggests otherwise. For one thing, the ~35/24 generator is particularly interesting; like 15/14 and 21/20, it represents an interval between one vertex of a [[hexany]] and the opposite vertex, which makes it particularly simple with regard to the cubic lattice of tetrads. For another, if we add 385/384 to the list of commas, 35/24 is identified with 16/11, and casablanca is revealed as an 11-limit temperament with a very low complexity for 11 and not too high a one for 7; we might compare 1, 4, 14, 19, the generator steps to 11, 7, 5 and 3 respectively, with 1, 4, 10, 18, the steps to 3, 5, 7 and 11 in 11-limit meantone. | It may not seem like casablanca has much to offer, but peering under the hood a bit harder suggests otherwise.

Marrakesh, named by [[Herman Miller]] in 2011<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_19166.html#19186 Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''A rose by any other name . . .'']</ref>, is a more accurate 11-limit extension where the generator is identified with 22/15 as opposed to 16/11 in casablanca. | |||
