Strangely enough, subtracting 9/8 from 8/5 gives you 64/45 even in JI, so mentioning that is not needed.

The '''schisma''', '''32805/32768''', is the difference between the [[Pythagorean comma]] and the [[syntonic comma]]. It is equal to ([[9/8]])<sup>4</sup>/([[8/5]]) and to ([[135/128]])/([[256/243]]) and because ([[8/5]])/([[9/8]]) = [[64/45]] also to ([[9/8]])<sup>3</sup>/([[64/45]]). Tempering it out gives a [[5-limit]] microtemperament called [[Schismatic family#Schismatic aka Helmholtz|schismatic, schismic or Helmholtz]], which if extended to larger subgroups leads to the [[schismatic family]] of temperaments.
