	'''Diasem''' is a [[Maximum variety\|max-variety-3]] JI scale that is equivalent to semaphore[9] with two of the small steps made larger and the other two made smaller. This results in better melodic properties than the meantone scales of [[26edo]] and [[31edo]], which both support it. The scale can be generated by an alternating chain of subminor thirds and supermajor seconds. The name "diasem" is a portmanteau of "diatonic" and "semaphore" since it the way it tempers the [[64/63]] is intermediate between [[superpyth]] and [[semaphore]]; it is also a pun based on the [[diesis]], a defining step size in the scale.
