1029/1024, the slendric comma or gamelisma, is a small 7-limit (also 2.3.7-subgroup) comma measuring about 8.4 cents. It is the amount by which a stack of three 8/7's falls short of 3/2.

Commatic relations

This comma factorizes into superparticulars as:

Tempering out these constituent commas adds new intervals (outside of the 2.3.7 subgroup) to the chain of 8/7s while doing minimal additional damage to 2.3.7 itself.

Temperaments

Tempering out this comma alone in the 2.3.7 subgroup leads to the rank-2 slendric temperament, or in the full 7-limit, the rank-3 gamelismic temperament. In either case, it enables the slendric pentad, and the perfect fifth is split into three equal parts, one for 8/7 and two for 21/16. In addition, the Pythagorean limma (256/243) is also split into three, one for 64/63~49/48 and two for 28/27. It therefore provides the little interval known as a quark.

See Gamelismic family for the rank-3 family where it is tempered out. See Gamelismic clan for the rank-2 clan where it is tempered out.

Etymology

This comma was known as the gamelan residue no later than May 2001. It was allegedly named by Adriaan Fokker[1].
