As per the name, Schismerc is characterized by the addition of the schisma, [[32805/32768]], to Mercator's comma, which completely reduces all commas in the [[Schismic-Mercator equivalence continuum]] to the [[unison]], and thus, the 5-limit part is exactly the same as the 5-limit of 53edo, with the addition of harmonic 7 represented by an independent generator. Among the known 11-limit extensions are Boiler, Cartography, and Pentacontatritonic.

== Boiler ==
Compared to Joliet, Boiler nails down both the 7-limit and the 11-limit by adding the [[kalisma]] to Schismerc's list of tempered commas, though unlike with the other extensions of Schismerc, this temperament lacks a good 13-limit extension.  The name for this temperament is a reference to how 212 degrees Fahrenheit is the boiling point of water, as well as to a number of mechanical devices that are boil water for various purposes.

== Cartography ==
== Cartography ==
Cartography nails down both the 7-limit and the 11-limit by adding the [[symbiotic comma]] to Schismerc's list of tempered commas. The name for this temperament comes from how good the mappings are, and also from the idea of "Mercator" being a dual reference to both Nicolas Mercator and Gerardus Mercator.
