Quartisma: Difference between revisions

The '''quartisma''' or '''Saquinlu-azo comma''' is a comma with a ratio of '''117440512/117406179''' and a [[monzo]] of {{monzo|24 -6 0 1 -5}}.  It is an [[unnoticeable comma]] of the [[11-limit]]- specifically one of the the 2.9.7.11 subgroup- with a value of approximately 0.50619 cents.  The quartisma is significant on account of it being the difference between a stack of five [[33/32]] quartertones and one [[7/6]] subminor third in Just Intonation.  Tempering it out leads to '''quartismic temperament''' or '''Saquinlu-azo temperament'''.  For the list of such temperaments, see [[Quartismic Family]].
