'''49/48''', the '''large septimal diesis''' (a.k.a. '''large septimal sixth-tone''' or '''slendro diesis'''), is a [[7-limit]] [[superparticular]] ratio spanning the small distance between a subminor third ([[7/6]]) and a supermajor second ([[8/7]]) or between the supermajor sixth ([[12/7]]) and the harmonic seventh ([[7/4]]). Measuring about 35.7{{cent}}, it is a [[medium comma]]; however, in classical Western music, this interval is not known as a [[comma]] as it is not tempered out in [[12edo]]. | '''49/48''', the '''large septimal diesis''' (a.k.a.
