The 5-limit parent comma for the '''schismatic''' (or '''schismic''') '''family''' is the [[schisma]] of 32805/32768, which is the amount by which the [[Pythagorean comma]] exceeds the [[Didymus comma]] (81/80), or alternatively put, the difference between a [[5/4|just major third]] and a [[8192/6561|Pythagorean diminished fourth]]. | The 5-limit parent comma for the '''schismatic''' (or '''schismic''') '''family''' is the [[schisma]] of 32805/32768, which is the amount by which the [[Pythagorean comma]] exceeds the [[Didymus comma]] (81/80), or alternatively put, the difference between a [[5/4|just major third]] and a [[8192/6561|Pythagorean diminished fourth]]. The generator is a fifth and 5/4 is represented by a diminished fourth. | ||
This defies the tradition of tertian harmony, as the just major triad on C is C-Fb-G, for example. One may want to adopt an additional module of accidentals such as arrows to represent the comma step, allowing them to write the chord above as C-vE-G. | This defies the tradition of tertian harmony, as the just major triad on C is C-Fb-G, for example.
