Orwell — so named because 19 steps of [[84edo]], or 19\84, is a possible generator — is an excellent 7-limit temperament and an amazing (because of the low complexity of 11) 11-limit temperament. The "perfect twelfth" 3/1 is divided into 7 equal steps. One of these steps represents 7/6; three represent 8/5. It's a member of the [[Semicomma family]]. | Orwell — so named because 19 steps of [[84edo]], or 19\84, is a possible generator — is an excellent 7-limit temperament and an amazing (because of the low complexity of 11) 11-limit temperament. The "perfect twelfth" 3/1 is divided into 7 equal steps. One of these steps represents 7/6; three represent 8/5. It's a member of the [[Semicomma family]]. Alternately, ~12/7 (which is the orwell generator upside down) is approximated by dividing the "fifth harmonic" 5/1 into 3 equal steps. | ||
In the 11 limit, two generators are equated to 11/8 (meaning 99/98 is tempered out). This means that three stacked generators makes the [[orwell tetrad]] 1/1-7/6-11/8-8/5, a chord in which every interval is a (tempered) 11-limit consonance. Other such chords in orwell are the [[keenanismic tetrads]] and the [[swetismic chords]]. | In the 11 limit, two generators are equated to 11/8 (meaning 99/98 is tempered out).
