Deeptone or tragicomical is a 5-limit temperament generated by a fifth (~3/2), which is typically sharper than in 7edo but flatter than in flattone (approximately 686-691 ¢). The ~5/4 is reached by eleven fifths octave-reduced, which is an augmented third (C-E#). A characteristic feature is that the syntonic comma is tuned negative, represented by a diminished unison (C-Cb). This means that ~81/64 is a submajor third flatter than ~5/4, and ~32/27 is a supraminor third sharper than ~6/5.
See Syntonic-chromatic equivalence continuum #Deeptone a.k.a. tragicomical for technical data.
