'''Unidec''' is the [[regular temperament]] defined in the 7-limit by [[tempering out]] [[1029/1024]], the gamelisma, and [[4375/4374]], the ragisma, with the 11-limit extension adding [[385/384]] or [[441/440]] to the comma list, featuring a period of a semioctave and a generator of a classic whole tone.  
'''Unidec''' is a [[regular temperament|temperament]] [[generator|generated]] by a wide major third representing [[80/63]] which can be taken as [[14/11]] from the 11-limit onwards. Two generators minus a [[semi-octave]] [[period]] make a [[~]][[8/7]], and three ~8/7's make a perfect fifth of [[3/2]], [[tempering out]] [[1029/1024]], the gamelisma, and [[4375/4374]], the ragisma, with the [[11-limit]] [[extension]] adding [[385/384]] or [[441/440]] to the comma list.  


Unidec has two viable 13-limit extensions: '''hendec''' and '''ekadash'''.
