User talk:CritDeathX: Difference between revisions

Line 127:

Okay, one thing I do in my list of intervals in 159edo is to try and keep the list trimmed down to 23-limit intervals, odd limits less than 1024, and intervals which are less than 3.5 cents away from the steps of the EDO. It's a complicated system, but so far, it seems to be working. One particular quirk I've noticed while working on this is that in 159edo, the difference between five 33/32 quartertones and a 7/6 subminor third is tempered out so that five tempered 33/32 equals one tempered 7/6. I worked out the difference between five 33/32 quartertones and a 7/6 subminor third to be 117440512/117406179- a comma only slightly more than half a cent in size. I also see that this comma has only been mentioned once on this wiki- specifically on the page for [[3125edo]]. Is there already a name for this comma? If not, I want to give it a name... --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 05:51, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

: I don't believe this was given a name yet. Go and name it, I guess. I wonder what temperaments this can bring, though. --[[User:CritDeathX|CritDeathX]] ([[User talk:CritDeathX|talk]]) 15:01, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

:: Would you look at that... This same comma- 117440512/117406179- is also the amount by which six 33/32 quartertones fall short of a 77/64 subminor third... Since this comma involves quartertones- how about I call it the "Quartisma"?
