The '''vishnu family''' [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[vishnu comma]] ({{monzo|legend=1| 23 6 -14 }}, [[ratio]]: 6 115 295 232 / 6 103 515 625), a [[5-limit]] comma of about 3 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which seven just chromatic semitones of [[25/24]] fall short of a just perfect fourth of [[4/3]], or in other words (4/3)/(25/24)<sup>7</sup>.

The generator for the vishnu temperament is a [[25/24|classical chromatic semitone]], seven of which make a [[4/3|perfect fourth]], and [[5/4]] is found as a half-octave period minus three generators. Its [[ploidacot]] is diploid epsilon-heptacot. It is a member of the [[diaschismic–gothmic equivalence continuum]] with {{nowrap| ''n'' {{=}} 7/2 }}; thus it is most naturally used as a 34-form.

== Septimal vishnu ==
== Septimal vishnu ==
Septimal vishnu may be described as the {{nowrap| 118 & 152 }} temperament, tempering out 4375/4374, the [[ragisma]], and 29360128/29296875, the [[quasiorwellisma]], aside from the vishnu comma. [[270edo]] is an excellent tuning for this temperament, with generator 16\270 (71.{{overline|1}} cents), but it can be tuned to [[422edo]], [[692edo]], or [[962edo]]. It extends naturally to the [[11-limit]] by identifying a stack of four [[5/4]]'s as [[11/9]], tempering out [[5632/5625]].
