'''Diaschismic''' in the [[5-limit]] is a [[regular temperament]] (also known as ''srutal'') defined by [[tempering out]] the comma [[2048/2025]] = [11 -4 -2⟩, the diaschisma. The octave is split into two periods, each representing [[~]][[45/32]]~[[64/45]]; and the [[generator]] can be considered to be a perfect fifth (~[[3/2]]), or a perfect fifth less a period, which is a diatonic semitone of ~[[16/15]]. Tempering out the diaschisma implies that two of these semitones are equated to [[9/8]], and therefore as [[9/8]] = ([[18/17]])([[17/16]]), ~[[16/15]] can very naturally be equated to 17/16 and 18/17 as well, producing a 2.3.5.17 [[subgroup]] extension known as '''srutal archagall''', whose commas are [[136/135]] and [[256/255]]. | '''Diaschismic''' in the [[5-limit]] is a [[regular temperament]] (also known as ''srutal'') defined by [[tempering out]] the comma [[2048/2025]] = [11 -4 -2⟩, the diaschisma.
