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 of deeptone 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. When properly tuned, it features MOS scales of the families 2L 3s, 5L 2s, 7L 5s, 7L 12s, and 7L 19s.
See Syntonic-chromatic equivalence continuum #Deeptone a.k.a. tragicomical for technical data.
Etymology
Deeptone was given by CompactStar in 2023, referring to the temperament featuring fifths even flatter than flattone. Tragicomical was allegedly given by groundfault no later than 2023.[1]
