The name ''undim'' was given by [[Petr Pařízek]] in 2011 for it is some sort of opposite to [[diminished (temperament)|diminished]]<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_101780.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Suggested names for the unclasified temperaments'']</ref>.

The second comma of the [[normal comma list]] defines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. Septimal undim ({{nowrap| 140 & 152 }}) tempers out 5120/5103 (hemifamity). Unlit ({{nowrap| 152 & 316 }}) does 4375/4374 (ragisma) instead. Twilight ({{nowrap| 152 & 176 }}) adds 6144/6125 (porwell) to the comma list and splits the period into two – 1/8 of an octave.

== Undim ==

Undim features a quarter-octave period, which acts as the [[1215/1024|ptolemaic augmented second (1215/1024)]]. That and five [[4/3|perfect fourths]] (i.e. a minor second, ~[[256/243]]) give the interval class of 5.

Note that all versions of undim (ones that do not already map 19 differently and more accurately) have an obvious extension to prime 19 by observing that sharpening 1215/1024 by [[1216/1215]] results in [[19/16]], thus mapping 19/16 to [[4edo|1\4]]. This interpretation is arguably much more harmonically plausible, owing to its simplicity and thereby greater tolerance to mistuning.
