The 5-limit version of the temperament is a [[Microtempering|microtemperament]], sometimes called helmholtz or schismatic, which flattens the fifth by a fraction of a schisma, but some other members of the family are less accurate. As a 5-limit system, it is far more accurate than meantone but still with manageable complexity. [[53edo]] is a possible tuning for schismatic, but you need [[118edo]] if you want to get the full effect. In exact analogy with 1/4 comma meantone there is also 1/8 schisma schismatic, with pure major thirds and fifths flattened by 1/8 schisma. Since 1/8 of a schisma is 0.244 cents, this falls into the range of microtempering.
